Planning a full day school trip to a country park in early February was optimistic but a break in the weather gave us almost spring-like conditions for our well wrapped-up five and six-year-old pupils to enjoy as they explored the woods, paths and follies of the old Hardwick estate, and related what they saw to the traditional tales they had heard in the classroom; a full day out means packed lunches and help needed with packaging that defeats tiny fingers, and lots of hand-washing (which in one case was attempted without first removing gloves), but worth it all to see them have such fun exercising both their bodies and their imaginations.
