cooking bacon on a stove at Hartlebury Common with Year 8

 

As we got to Hartlebury Common the pupils enjoyed finding a tree where a small group showed an interest in climbing halfway to "I am trying to find a good seat" when another group worked together to set up the stove, cooking mats, pans and chairs for the cooking. As some of the pupils began to start cooking they decided who was going to take on the role of cooker and who was going to butter the bread. Another group saw a swamp right behind the tree and said "we are going to go and find a frog so we can cook it on the stove". 


As the pupils separated into two small groups one of the pupils asked if they could go for a walk to explore Hartlebury Common as themselves and a member of staff travelled in a circular surrounding talking about past experiences of tripping over small holes, as we could see several of them on the sand pit grounds, on holidays or their siblings own experience when walking to School as the pupil said "yeh my sister tripped over one hole and then another hole right in front of it so it was like she was flying". We also talked about how we had been to Hartlebury Common before and what happened on the Outdoor Ed lesson. The pupil explained "do you remember the last time we came here we saw that bull and Miss Parker nearly touched it".
