Y5 – Hammocks and Dens – Forest School

Year 5 have spent their sessions today revisiting the three knots learnt last half-term – Prusik, Bowline and the Sliding Knot. Using these three skills and working together to solve problems, children were able to pitch hammocks and tents around the school ground to apply their knowledge of knots into real-life contexts. Over the next few sessions, Year 5 are going to be building on their knot tying skills and they’ll have to apply this new learning into a range of different scenarios.
