exploring the hills of Habberley Valley with Year 9

The pupils sorted themselves into two groups where one group showed an interest in walking to the top of the forest hills and the other supported one another and the teaching assistants with setting up the rope swing. The group who wanted to explore the hills found various ways of travelling to the top such as walking through, in and out of the trees and climbing over the bushes or walking step by step along the stairs. The pupils found a big grass hill which followed on from the forest hills and a road. Two of the pupils walked to the end of the grass hill with one saying "I am the king of this mountain". As we walked back down the hills the group explored another side of the forest where they found a cave and sat down saying "this is our new home". The pupil stayed in the cave until the end of the lesson talking about what sights they could see and how high they were from the ground with one pupil describing the height as "I can see people down there they look really small"
