Forest school is a child-led environment - children are encouraged to follow their own interests, whether this is working with tools, digging in the ground, drawing and painting or playing imaginary games amongst the trees. The possibilities are endless! They are supported by the forest school leader and other adults within the environment to achieve their aims, whatever these may be.

Forest School can provide a unique way for home educated children to socialise whilst learning new skills. It can help children develop a sense of deep respect and responsibility for the natural world which is becoming increasingly important in a world facing climate change and other environmental challenges. In addition, spending time in nature is linked to reduced stress, improved mood, and better cognitive function.

Activities are suitable for ages 4-9 but younger siblings are welcome to come and join the fun whilst sessions remain accompanied - please purchase a sibling ticket if you would like a younger sibling to come along (non-walkers in a buggy/carrier are free).
