The Forest School sessions are underpinned by the forest school ethos which is child led- and choice based, to allow for the holistic development of the child and to facilitate getting kids back to nature, in all weathers.
We always have activities and offerings to share with the children but we create an environment that supports children to contribute their ideas and inspirations and child led play. The aim is to support children’s creativity and sense of curiosity, to build bonds and friendships and encourage their individual way of learning and interacting with the natural world in a fun and safe environment.
Forest school ratios are small. It is max 12 children to 2 adults or max 18 children to 3 adults. This allows for quality attention and to be in tune with the children's needs.
