The places I have visited As part of my award I have visited new places in Northumberland and Tyne and Wear. Sid Wood Kielder Forest Chopwell Wood Havanagh Country Park
4
Sid Wood I went on a wood land walk at Sid Wood in the Northumberland national park. I enjoyed it because i have not been there before and i like the fresh air and the scenery.
5
Chopwell Wood I learnt about animal habitats and had a go at making a hedgehog habitat to find out more about how animals to live. I had a bbq and by sitting down in one place for a long period of time I was able to take more notice of what was around me. I enjoyed the activities but i did not like the rain.
6
Havanagh Country Park I learnt about using plants and animals to help me survive in the wild. This has helped me learn more about the environment and appreciate it more. The activities i did were: Fire lighting- I learnt how to use birch bark and fire steels to light a fire. We had to raise the fire off the ground to protect the plants and animals from the fire. Outdoor cooking- if learnt how to prepare and cook rabbit. Shelter building- i used sticks and branches that I found on the ground to learn how to build shelters.
7
Kielder Forest Conservation I spent two days at Kielder forest helping the forestry commission lay and maintain tracks in the forest. By helping to conserve the forest i have helped lower erosion to protect plant and animals and help more people to visit the forest.

Sharing my experiences I did not really know much about the outdoors before taking part in the John Muir Award. I have learn a lot of taking part in these activates. I think other people should take part in the John Muir Award and have enjoyed reading about my experiences.
