LIME
The bamboo was fully discovered by Lime class today and they were using it for all sorts of creative and innovative purposes. One group were holding sticks in the air as cameras filming their every move, as they tried to survive 100 days in the forest. Every now and then they’d remind people to like and subscribe. Some very cool bases were made and built upon and a small team made some cookies to celebrate Girl Scout Cookie Day!
WILLOW
It was part 2 of the Red Robin pub buildathon and this week they began sticking the bamboo in the ground creating a fence area which they decided would be a perfect bar to order drinks and crisps from. They struggled to get the sticks in but then discovered that leaning all their weight on the sticks would drive them into the ground. Another fence was made using string tying several pieces of bamboo together and made an excellent barrier for the pub. An artist also worked and used muddy water to create masterpieces that were then sold for extortionate rates…
EYFS
The bamboo is still the talk of the town and 3 different dens were being made. The most popular one was turned into a ninja house where they split into 3 teams, one group had to find sticks and drag them carefully to the den, another group were piling sticks on, while a sort of ninja soup was being made by the third group! A 2nd den was being made by the climbing tree and they were mainly working on the roof and a third den was turned into a bedroom. A few games of hide and seek happened towards the end of the session too.
BEECH
Beech class were over the moon that they could climb the trees for the first time in a while and set about trying to avoid the bird poo and climb as high as they felt safe too. The ship that has been sailing for the last month was still enjoying a hearty voyage with the main blue sail flapping in the wind. A huge group were obsessed with building the bamboo den and making sure that the tarp on the roof was protecting them from any bad rain. The digging zone was always busy too, with some china pots parts being found and Bob the Builder being sang…
MAPLE
Maple were given the safety talk on how to work sensibly with the bamboo and were happy to get building. They were very impressed with how much the bamboo den had grown and a group claimed it as their own shop. The tree being available was welcome news for them too and there were a lot of people who wanted to have a climb. In the digging zone a team were scraping the mud off of the concrete slabs, trying to clean them all up, but their muddy wellies kept on making the job more difficult again! An upgraded game of hide and seek took place too!
