Early Years Forest School

Early Years Forest School

Experience a day of messy, muddy, nature-based fun in our Forest School! After years of successfully delivering our forest school programme to groups and families, our experienced team of educators and forest school leaders are now extending this offer to EYFS & Nursery settings. Children are encouraged to make independent choices and lead their own learning, supported by our team. Teachers will have the opportunity to observe children’s responses to the wonder of the woodland. As they play and explore, interacting and experimenting, there will be numerous opportunities for language development, mathematical thinking, and time to ignite their curiosity. Adults can gain valuable insight into the children’s thoughts and reasoning about what they experience. This is a wonderful opportunity for children and adults alike to enjoy the benefits of time in nature.
