Forest School sessions
A block of 6 sessions is ideal for those involved to benefit from the Forest School process.
Children can enjoy outdoor activities in a wild woodland environment, with encouragement for them to take small, incremental steps concerned with taking risks. The desired outcome is related to building confidence, resilience, self esteem and social and verbal skills.
If you think this could be just what you’re looking for then maybe you’d like to read more about Forest School to more fully understand what’s involved.
Wild wood encounters
The whole group would be involved in pre-planned activities, perhaps a good starting point, especially for younger children.
These can be provided with wild wood experiences linked to:
- Science and the environment
- Practical maths
- Creative English
- Arts and Music
