The pupils showed an interest in having a go on the rope swing talking about what they will do on it with one pupil saying "I want to go really high" when another explained what movements they would like to make "I am going to try and spin in a circle". As we got to the bank the pupils enjoyed climbing to the top of the hill going in different directions such as walking up the steps or exploring around and through the forest trees. The pupils watched as the teacher predicted how many times it would take to attach the rope to the tallest tree branch. When the rope swing was set up for the pupils they took it in turns, with staff support, to use their feet to push and see how high they could go. One pupil said "wow I nearly touched the clouds".
After the pupils had a go they all sat down on logs, which were placed in a circle, together in a group and enjoyed drinking a cup of hot chocolate with a sprinkle of marshmallows on top.
