Forest school aims to inspire children through nature, building their confidence and self esteem and encouraging individual growth. At these sessions, young children from 18 months to 5 years, with their carer, can learn through play at their own pace. Through wildlife inspired arts and crafts, building, climbing, bug hunting or simply experiencing the tranquillity and calm of their natural surroundings, children will be supported on their individual learning journey by our experienced outdoor educators.
