Every autumn term as the days begin to draw in and the weather begins to turn conkers fall to the ground. They do so silently and sparingly at first and their numbers begin to steadily increase till the bounty is plenty and all the children enjoy filling their pockets! I am delighted to report that the children are no exception to this. On our outings to the park they have developed keen eyes and are great at scanning the ground for any conker they can find. For those that walk they pick up conkers, and also pine cones en-route and small rivalries develop as they show-off their finds as they get into the classroom. What has also been cute is that the squirrels have also got in on the act. We deposited our conkers in our ‘secret garden’ and the children were using them in the mud kitchen and for various games. We realised that they gradually began disappearing and all was made clear when we had various sightings of squirrels going in and out of the garden ferrying the conkers away to some secret hiding! I guess by stealth, the squirrels get the prize!  Comments are closed.
