The legend of the Mermaids Pool

Each year Woodcraft have a project called Hands In, where groups form around the country get together to work on something together. This year theme is story telling, the stories will pass form group to group with each group adding a bti mroe. Finally the completed stories will be circulated later in the year.

Our group was one of the first groups, and our starting passage was about a group of children looking at a map of Kinder Scout and the surrounding area and deciding to visit.

We started by looking at the map ourselves, noticing what kind of features we could find. Then we looked at some photos of the local area. We also found out more about the legend of the Mermaid's Pool on Kinder Scout.

After writing our part of the story the children painted pictures of what they thought the area, and the mermaid might look like.
