Meerkats - Forest School Texture Hunt

5 February 2026 (by Mr Scott (meerkats))

We enjoyed our chilly forest visit!

Wrapped up warm on Tuesday, we spent some time on the animal park before going into the woods to collect different colours and textures to recreate in our sketchbooks. We discussed what 'texture' means and brainstormed different vocabulary. Our eagle eyed meerkats found lots of great texture examples. We even had time to play and some of our mob got more then a little muddy!. We will use the textures we found in class later this week when we mix colours and use different tools to recreate them. Thank you to Miss Thompson for joining us for a spot of forest art!
