P3 Forest School Visit

13th May 2026

The children enjoyed trying pond dipping during their visit, using nets to explore the water and discover tiny creatures. They also learned about the animals that live in the forest and worked together in teams to build life-size birds’ nests.

We were amazed at how much wildlife could be found in such a small area. It was a fun, hands-on day where everyone learned something new — and didn’t mind getting a little wet!

A big thank you to Paddy Nelson and everyone at Knockmany Forest School for a fantastic day.
