Scavenger Hunts in Tehidy Woods

The reception classes had a great time at Tehidy Woods.

We loved foraging for different treasures and found most of the things on our scavenger hunt list, including snails, slugs, woodlice, leaves of all different colours, animal foot prints, spiders, twigs, rocks, flowers, ants, birds and birds nests.

After that built some fairy dens and tried to find the magic faraway tree.

 

Next we had a quick game of 40 40 and hide and seek, then had a little wonder down to Otter Bridge.

Finally we ambled back with just enough time for a little play and some more exploring before we made our way back on to the bus.

Lots of fun was had by all.
