Year 4 have spent time exploring Autumn during their Busy Badger sessions. We have collected leaves, done some leaf rubbings and tried to identify what type of tree they were from. We have worked in the school garden and looked after the bird by making some bird feeders. We also went to the nature reserve and looked for signs of autumn.

Year 2 have enjoyed some lovely spring weather during their busy badger sessions. They spent time exploring the school environment, doing bark rubbing, creating nature prints, bug hunting and recreating some nature pictures on the playground with chalk. They also practiced their balancing skills on the slack line and stepping stones.

Year 6 have enjoyed a mix of weather during their Busy Badgers session. We have used tools to create wooden Christmas decorations. We explored the nature reserve using cameras to take photos of nature in winter. The pond was frozen over when we visited so we had a discussion about the dangers of frozen water. We have also worked in teams to make some bird feeders and put them around the school grounds.

Year 3 have experienced every weather during their Busy Badger sessions, from a beautiful autumn day, pouring rain, icy cold and even a hail storm!! We have collected autumn leaves at the nature reserve, made boats, splashed in puddles, explored the ice, had 'Busy Badgers Bake Off' and finished our sessions with some crafts. Have a look at the slideshow below.
