More carvings in Court Farm Woods

Year 5 were very creative in their ideas.


One theme was that the grounds/woods provided a range of foods for the animals, and is linked to the food cycle. So we have several mini beasts eating up the leaves – with bite marks, aphids, and acorns and transferring them into compost etc to continue the life cycle. It includes ladybird, caterpillar, and millipede.
The second side explores the role of trees in providing oxygen, shelter, food, play and homes for animals and humans.
We have a tree house, a woodpecker, and a child; with birds in the branches. All making full use of the materials provided by the tree.
The third side looks at fun, outdoor activities, having picnics, feeding the ducks, playing in the open spaces, watching the animals, and getting exercise. So we have small children with a large multi-tiered cake, ducks and ducklings swimming and being fed, a rabbit, and a place to fish, and a bridge.
