Primary School" --- # 🐛 Bug Hunting and Outdoor Adventures ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-stephen-s-ce-primary-school/images/blog/IMG_0127.JPG) 25 September 2026 [Reception Blog](https://www.ststephenscofe.durham.sch.uk/blog/category/reception-blog) This week, the children have had a lovely time at Forest School. They have thoroughly enjoyed exploring the outdoors, looking for bugs, making bug houses and digging for treasure. It has been lovely to see them developing their confidence, independence and teamwork skills while having lots of fun in the beautiful sunshine. We are so proud of the enthusiasm and curiosity they have shown throughout their Forest School experience. Some children returned to the classroom and drew a picture of their favourite bugs.
