Seasonal Changes in Epping Forest
 
On the 22nd of September 2022 Year 2 went to Epping Forest. 
We went on the train to Chingford and after a short walk we were at our destination. 
We went into the forest and looked for 'natural treasures' on the forest floor. 
We collected loads of resources and then mapped the seasons by creating an Autumn Pie. 
We had the best time and can't wait to go back to the forest again!
