Originally a Scandinavian idea, children of all ages can benefit greatly from the ‘hands on learning’ opportunities present in a woodland environment. In an age when many children have few opportunities to be outdoors, Forest Schools offer children an exciting and stimulating way to learn and experience a broad curriculum in a woodland setting. Children and young people are taught in a classroom without walls, where they use the natural environment as a learning tool.

Activities include: Den building, story time, natural art, mini beasts/pond dipping, stream damming, natural musical instruments, sculpture – clay/natural materials and many more.
