Oakstead Goes to Beaulieu

Having spent the week learning all about the animals and habitats of Britain, today was Year 4 and 5's chance to experience it for real! We had to tough it out in less than hospitable weather, but with our weather proofs on, we didn't mind a bit. We really got to understand the point of view of insects, deer and bats in the wild - using fancy dress and games. We also learnt to recognise the call of various native birds, and we explored under the rocks and logs to find and categorise all the different types of invertebrates we could find. When the weather took a turn for the worse, we headed home a little early to celebrate our week. Have a great half-term break!
