Activities for Forest Schools are diverse and numerous but it should be reminded that we are trying to create independent learners who are inspired to try out their own ideas, explore their own interests and to attempt new ideas.
We teach the children a progression in knowledge and skills and provide them with a range of opportuntities to remember and do more. You can find our progression in Forest Schools below.
Some activities might include:
Shelter building
Fire lighting
