Nursery put on our wellies and enjoyed an Autumn walk following our story, 'The Leaf Thief'. We noticed signs of Autumn and found lots of interesting, natural items such as leaves of different colours, shapes and sizes, pine cones, mushrooms and red berries. We explored the woodland area, collected our own leaves, and back in Nursery we made our own collage pictures.
