2G/o'C 's turn to explore up the Paragon valley to see what we could find. We talked of the heroes they'd been thinking about in class and set off through the gate! Everyone was rather excited and the imaginary clues started to be noticed; half nibbled hazelnuts (bat nuts), poisonous red berries along the ground, a crooked stick turned into a hook hand. The super sleuths felt the danger of the "evil explorer." Along the lane to the hidden valley, via a small archway. He had daubed the walls with his special language. A tumbled down wall, his power, more writing (graffiti)...a message to us. Along we went, feeling oppressed by the walls of the valley, like Jason and the Argonauts in the Dardanelles (I think). Louis was really excited about this. On we went and talked and talked; 2 robodogs approached us a few times.
After break we built a trap for the robodogs up in the beech lands, alongside our dens and a couple of small fires, to cook our marshmallows. Pascalle was pleased to eat custard creams too! We ran out of time to cook the popcorn, but we had a lot of fun!
