Autumn Walk in Year 1

Year 1 went for a walk on Thursday to spot signs of Autumn.  After watching ‘Let’s go for a walk’ with Ranger Hamza, they were ready to look and listen carefully.  They noticed where they were and, like Hamza does, they used their geography skills to make a simple map of their route.
