Slinfold School pupils enjoy Stone Age antics

Slinfold’s ample environmental area was utilised with the support of Forest Schools Leader, Judy Agate (from Green Caterpillars), to sample a range of activities which included: fire making, cordage, pottery, den building and bread making.

Children were busy experiencing how Neolithic children may have spent their day.

“I thought making and cooking bread outside with a fire was awesome! It also made us think how Torak, from the Wolf Brother book, might have spent his day.,” said pupil, Ted Collins.

Teacher, Laura Braun said: “It was wonderful to see the children so immersed and utilising skills from the Stone Age. This new curriculum topic is proving to be a real hit.”
