GREEN-fingered youngsters at Tardebigge First School have been getting closer to nature with their new Forest School.

An area of the school's playing field has been set aside, and children have planned and planted their own forest area where they will enjoy a host of activities.

Headteacher Sue Helps said it was used by reception children, who loved spending time there."

"They make dens and all sorts - it's wonderful and we all want to be four again."
