Come along for a fun session, where you participate with your child and learn and discover new things about the outdoors together in safe surroundings and stretch their imagination and their confidence and build their resilience.

We teach children how to light fires and use tools safely, whilst supervised. There will always be a physical activity, some quiet time, a craft activity, chance to have free play and explore safely with friends and learn independently. and you will always have the opportunity to take home something lovely that your child has made.

Your child may join in or do their own thing if they prefer, in a no pressure environment.

Please bring warm and waterproof clothing and a drink of water and your own snack if needed, as this is not supplied at the moment.

We have adjusted our sessions to be socially distanced and comply with Covid 19 prevention guidelines to keep you safe.

Our forest school sessions build on the previous weeks learning. So it is best for a child to attend all six sessions.

Normally we request that you book the whole half term in advance, HOWEVER DUE TO THE UNCERTAINTY OF LOCKDOWN RESTRICTIONS, WE ARE CURRENTLY ACCEPTING BOOKINGS ON A SINGLE SESSION BASIS. THEREFORE YOU ARE NOT REQUIRED TO BOOK THE ENTIRE HALF TERM OF SIX SESSIONS.

Here is an idea of what you can expect to do.

Please be aware that this may change at any time.

week 1. Get comfy and get to know the woods: Make seed bombs and sit mats and go on a Scavenger hunt.

Week 2. Get in tune with your surroundings: Explore animal trails and their homes, learn to listen quietly to make friends with the animals. Make an animal mask or have your face painted.

Week 3. Get creative: Make flower and mud art. Make plaster casts. Follow a trail and learn some trail signs.

Week 4. More creations; making and following patterns and using your brain: Make a beautiful and unique "Tataki Zome" wall hanging picture to take home (the Japanese art of flower and leaf pounding). Follow our fun butterfly-wool-winding agility course trail. Play Woodland Bingo.

Week 5. Looking at plants and how they grow: Make a friendly "Grass Head Pet" to keep. Create a forest bracelet or head-band on your walk. Have a go at leaf and bark rubbings and learn the names of some trees.

Week 6: Lets celebrate!: Come on a treasure hunt with us- what will you find? We might have a fire. Make a "Bug Home" to put in your garden, or make a mobile to swing and rattle in the wind.

Teaching a "small person" how to light a fire.
