Afterschool Forest School

Afterschool Forest School September/October course

For primary school children (P1-P7)
6 week course

Led by our experienced Forest School Leader and Playworker Joan, each session will support the children’s play, learning and development- and of course be a lot of fun!

Based in our beautiful woodland environment and impressive Bushcraft Camp, the children can expect to learn how to make a shelter, build a rope swing, identify birds, animals, fungi, trees and plants, safely use tools such as, knives and bowsaw while spending time outdoors immersed in nature and meeting new friends. There will also be a walking element to the experience when we go on our wildlife wanders.

This 6 week programme supports play, learning, exploration and supported risk taking in a small group. It develops confidence and self-esteem through learner inspired, hands-on experiences in the natural woodland setting.

Cost: £100 for 6 weeks

(if booking 2 consecutive terms please contact us for a £10 discount)

This course runs for 6 weeks and is booked as an entire block. Children should attend all six weeks for most fun and impact (a refund cannot be made if a child does not attend). Having fun with the same group and building a community is an important element of our Forest School programme.
