At an annual bushcraft demonstration day, the classes at Springmead School were involved in hands-on sessions with Mark and Lucy Hotson, who welcomed the pupils into school with an inviting fire, a shelter and exciting resources to handle and explore.

This event re-launched the school's bushcraft programme for the year, which all the children will participate in at some point, learning all about nature and the environment.

A Springmead spokeswoman said: "Bushcraft is a unique aspect of our school life; creatively covering many aspects of the National Curriculum but going so very much further in getting our children to engage totally with the natural environment."
