Yesterday, part of the school went to Brickworks as Part of the Healthy Choices program, and participated in our first outdoor session. We had an invigorating afternoon outside learning about some of the native plant species on site, and learning how to make an outdoor fire – even in slushy, wet and wintery conditions. Brian and Michelle took us into the woods to collect appropriate firewood, showed us how to prep wood to make it usable for a fire, and how to build both a log-cabin and teepee style fire. We soon discovered that we had a few survivor men in our midst, as they worked diligently to start a fire despite the brisk breeze. Our afternoon was capped off with a warm cup of delicious cedar tea. Thanks to Brickworks for another great day!
