Forest School

What is Forest School?

Our Forest School sessions are designed to nurture children’s physical, emotional, and social development through outdoor learning in a natural woodland setting. By exploring the outdoors, children gain valuable experiences that support their overall wellbeing – from boosting self-esteem to building resilience and teamwork skills.

The Benefits of Forest School:

Child-Led Outdoor Learning

Our Forest School activities are child-led. Children are trusted to make their own decisions under the guidance of experienced Forest School leaders. This responsibility builds:

A sense of purpose and belonging.

Self-worth and self-esteem.

Emotional intelligence and a positive mindset.

Confidence and resilience.

About Our Site

Our woodland site is equipped to provide a safe, comfortable, and versatile outdoor experience for all ages. We have two large ex-army tents with ample seating, log burners, and lighting powered by a portable generator. There’s also an onsite toilet, a dedicated fire area with a rain canopy, an outdoor kitchen with cooking facilities, and a secure target sports area for archery, axe throwing, and knife throwing. The tents also serve as outdoor learning spaces when needed.
