YOUNGSTERS spent their school holidays learning woodland survival skills.
More than 20 children aged between seven and 12-years-old took part in a day dedicated to learning how to survive in the wild.
They spent more than four hours trekking around the forest in Cobhambury Woods, Batts Road, Cobham.
Under the watchful eye of bushcraft expert Steve Taylor, they made a fire by rubbing sticks together.
Mr Taylor, from Tonbridge Wells, played games with the youngsters to improve their observation and tracking skills.
The day was organised by environmental charity Groundwork Kent Thames-side.
The charity works with the community to improve the surrounding area and educate youngsters about the environment.
Groundwork's education officer Sallyanne Hall said: "It really made them stop and think about the environment and gave them a real insight into what it must have been like to survive in the wilderness in bygone ages."
