Hothersall Lodge Outdoors Centre, nr Preston

We worked with children from a local primary school to make a large willow den at Hothersall http://www.lancashire.gov.uk/corporate/web/?siteid=3953&pageid=16864. The weather was unseasonally warm and the children were able to use the centre's new climbing wall as well as help to weave a willow structure. a great time was had by all.

First Living Willow Project of the season, Dent C of E Primary




Today we finished our first living willow project of the 2011/12 season. We worked with the children of Dent C of E Primary School to create a Living Willow Dome and Tunnel, known as a Twigloo! Luckily the weather was kind to us so there was no rain and the ground was soft but not muddy. We worked with all of the children in the school (there are under 40 children in total) in rotation to dig and plant and then weave the structure. Great fun was had by all!
