Wild Tribe
Trewidland Primary School has been accredited with Wild Tribe status.
The school's Wild Tribe Leaders have delivered two six week blocks of sessions in their new outdoor "Wild Tribe" area, taking the children in KS1 and KS2 on a journey through the Amazon rainforest as part of their school rainforest topic.
Children have developed skills in fire lighting and management, shelter building and using knives for whittling sticks to toast a marshmallow or two! Both children and staff alike have seen the benefits of the outdoor classroom, and are planning on embedding Wild Tribe practice throughout the school curriculum.

We will be going out in all weathers as much as possible.
