No Plan Day – Survival Skills

On Wednesday 14th Elm had a No Plan Day on Survival Skills. We spent the day discussing what we need to survive if we became lost in the woods. We decided that building a shelter, finding food, a safe water source and making a fire were the most important things! We created dens in small groups, made a ‘bow drill’, a tool to make a fire without matches or a lighter. We then spoke about the ‘fire triangle’, ate s’mores and drank hot chocolate.
