 This is our weekly 'Parent Stay and Play' long term Forest School programme for children from Walking - 5 years old. It runs on a Monday, Wednesday and Friday 10-12pm and is booked in termly bookings.

Our carefully planned sessions will provide opportunities for the children to take risks, explore nature crafts, learn how to use a variety of real tools, teach them how to safely light and respect fire, enjoy a campfire snack each week and most of all how to enjoy nature! 

Your child will develop their independence, risk awareness, confidence and resiliance throughout our sessios, but most of all have FUN!

Creating a community is at our heart and these sessions will welcome each and every adult and child into our site each week with open arms! 

Tuesdays  10-2pm. 

This is our weekly Forest School session for chidren who are Home Educated! 

This is currently a 4 hour drop off session for children aged 5+.

It runs on a Tuesday 11-2pm and is booked in termly bookings, term time only.

We LOVE running sessions in the school holidays for families who have a child with a SEN or just those who have children who may find busy holiday clubs a little overwhelming and would benenfit from a smaller group.

We have our campfire, crafts, tools available to use, ropes and swings, mud kitchen and everything else our Forest school has to offer! 

The staff working this session will all have experience of supporting children and families with childrren who have additional needs and are passionate about ensuring ALL children have access to forest school. 

All of our sessions are inclusive and we welcome every child to any of our sessions, so please do not feel that just because your child may have a diagnosis of an additional need that they can only attend our SEN sessions. They are more than welcome to all of our other sessions too , you can remain with them if you would prefer, or at times we may also be able to provide a 1:1 to support them if needed.

 However, these SEN sessions are lovely for families to be able to meet other families, they have less children booked in and an unlimited number of adults may attend with the family. Siblings are also welcome!

Our next SEN session will be during the May Half Term.

 We know that the education system does not suit all children, and for some it is just not accessible for various reasons. 

Perhaps a child cannot cope with the expectations of the classroom, has social or emotional needs that require an alternative approach or perhaps they have suffered trauma or have a mental health condition that means they need a slightly different approach to a school setting. No matter what the reason, we are here to welcome them with open arms and feel passionate that with the right approach paired with the great outdoors we can offer a tranquil and beautiful space to support them to flourish.
