Forest School

What We Do

Our Forest School sessions are something that we have spent a lot of time, over the last few years developing. It is an area of provision that is very close to our hearts. 

The children have opportunities to visit our forest school area at least once a week, supported by our Forest School Level 3 leaders. We visit in small, consistent groups to promote children’s sense of belonging and camaraderie. 

We focus on building children’s holistic development, from physical skills, understanding and caring for the world around them to supporting their personal, social and emotional development. 

Children will experience all the seasons and the changing landscape. They will learn about fires, how to be safe and how we use them. They will learn basic tool skills to create and learn how to build shelters. We visit the local woods at least once a half term. 

It is our favourite time of the week!

 

 

What to Wear

We visit in all weathers and seasons and recommend that your child brings lots of layers of clothing, waterproofs and wellies. But don’t worry, if you are unable to get hold of waterproofs we have plenty of spares.
