Dads and dens at Middleton-in-Teesdale

Youngsters in Middleton-in-Teesdale took time out from the classroom to learn how to build dens.

To celebrate Father’s Day, reception and nursery pupils at Middleton-in-Teesdale Primary School enjoyed an afternoon in the woods with their dads and granddads.

Early years lead Lauren Dominick said: “We do outdoor learning in the forest every Friday afternoon. We have done things like cooking on the fire. We are den building today and with it being Father’s Day, we thought we would invite dads and granddads too.”

Using manmade and natural materials found in the woods, the children and their elders created their own dens. They then enjoyed toasting marshmallows.
