It has been an exciting Forest School session this week, where the Year 6s started the first session of their survival challenge with Mr Sarkis. Each week, the children will be split into teams: the foragers, the fire makers and the den builders.

Today, the forager team's job was to search for all of the ingredients to make popcorn for all of the children at the end of the session.The fire maker team's job was to build and light a fire to cook the popcorn, and the den builder team's job was to build a den which could hold their entire team safely.

Each week the classes will complete to gain points based on the success of each of the teams, with one final winning class at the end of the term.

So who will be the winners at the end of term? The Polcatarians or The Pine Marten Warriors? Let the competition commence!

Well done to Frank for being the first child in Year 6 to light a fire using a flint!
