Year 1 enjoyed a very wet Whinlatter trip to learn more about the changing seasons. We explored the Forest with Ruth looking for signs of seasonal change. We found pine cones and a couple of sharp eyes spotted some red squirrels. We found evergreen trees that keep their leaves all year round and spotted the deciduous trees which lose their leaves in autumn. In the yurt classroom Ruth explained about hedgehog hibernation. After exploring we enjoyed our lunch and then some time in the play park. We all came away very soggy but had such a fun day learning more about how the changing seasons affect animals and plants.
