Can be booked separately, so children can attend one or both sessions. We will play lots of games, build dens, make some environmental art, make things using our wide range of tools and just have fun! Children need to be dressed for the weather (layers, waterproofs and wellies or stout boots for cold weather) and are required to bring their own packed snack and a drink.

Out of the classrooms and into the wild they go… Those who want to join us for a FREE first session/ taster session will notice the excitement when our after school club children arrive hopping, skipping and ready to explore. Each term covers around 13 /14 sessions, depending on term length. The last session of each term is our fire session, marking the break for half term or holidays. The children will make and bake their own bread, enjoy popping corn and making S’mores over the fire. School pick up available from Gordonbrock school on a Wednesday and Trinity School on a Friday.

Forest School is an innovative, child led approach to outdoor play and learning. This ethos of outdoor learning started in Scandinavia and is growing in popularity in the UK. It is fun and unhurried. It is focused on process not product. Research shows that children benefit from being outdoors and at Forries Education we encourage children from Early Years to Key Stage 2 (3 to 11 years old for non-teacher folk, though we had children from 18 months join us) to have adventures and take responsibilities. They develop confidence and resilience by learning how best to take risks, cooperate, negotiate and compromise with each other whilst stretching their legs as well as their imagination. In reality, that means outdoor fun, tools, mud and dens and lots of climbing fallen trees in the rain and snow.
