I am fascinated by the raw potential that is in each one of us, and dismayed at how easily lack of confidence and self belief can chip away – so much so, that potential is never realised. I love how Forest School is participant led, all about daring to try, developing resilience, fuelled by the magic of reconnecting with nature and taking time to immerse yourself in the woods. Each session feels like an adventure, no, IS an adventure, and every time I emerge from the woods with my groups, I feel we have been on a full-blown expedition. Skills are learnt, fears are dissolved, and the embers of courage are nurtured and tended to. It’s great fun, and for me, has been life changing. Come and join me!
Important stuff: We are committed to safeguarding, child protection and promoting the welfare of children and young people. We firmly believe in supporting them to learn how to identify and deal with potential risk in the woods so they can make informed decisions and learn how to be adventurous and stay safe. Within sessions there is an expectation that each person looks after themselves, each other and the woods we play in, creating a supportive community that is a safe space to dare to dream.
