The Forest school is accessible from the main car park, and a short nature trail walk will lead you straight into the Forest School environment.
This is a unique addition to our Company as first and foremost, it’s a Forest School Nursery where the children will spend 95% of their time in the outdoors, learning through nature in a Forest environment. Initially, we are opening and offering this opportunity to Pre-School children only with a view to moving to Babies and Toddlers in the very near future.
We are looking forward to creating fantastic memories for our children in this outdoor environment. We take the “classroom” outside and use the beautiful surroundings, weather and sounds to enhance their learning visually, orally and sensually. This holistic approach encourages children’s imaginations, build’s self-esteem and creates the desire to understand, learn and respect the natural world around them. The children are in a safe environment where they can succeed, create and use maths and literacy skills without them even realising it! Through exploration and discovery, the children are able to enjoy and self-initiate their own learning. They are given the opportunity and responsibility under supervision, to use tools and help be part of a team, even creating a fire to keep them warm and cook food – obviously under strict supervision.
