Our staff are Level 3 qualified Forest School Leaders and also have skills and interests in other areas such as Early Years, SEND and Upper Key Stage 2, some with QTS. We do our best to match staff with the right expertise to your group.
Bring your class to spend the day at our beautiful woodland site. The children will have plenty of opportunities to play freely and let their creativity sore through exploration of our open-ended provision. We have a whole host of equipment that the children will have full access to, including swings, pulleys, rope ladder, hammocks, magnifying glasses and insect hunting resources, bird hide with binoculars and bird watching resources, a well-equipped mud kitchen and much much more.
The visit will be led by one of our qualified Forest School Leaders who will be able to offer an introduction to all things Forest School. We’ll work with you to design your visit but some of the things we might explore include, lighting a fire with a ferro rod and striker, cooking a snack on the campfire, crafting with natural materials possibly with an introduction to some basic tools. We’ll do our best to work in any relevant learning outcomes too. In the past we’ve covered topics such as eco education and looking after the environment; insects; fairy tales and habitats.

Our weekly Forest School sessions work with the school to embed Forest School principles which focuses on the holistic development of children as individuals. Forest School helps to develop children’s connection with nature, confidence, resilience, social and communication skills as well as working on fine and gross motor skills and risk awareness.
Our School Forest School sessions use the WILD Passport system which is a five-year outdoor learning progressive skills curriculum which evidences learner progression.
If you have a suitable outdoor area on your site for us to set up a base camp area, we can facilitate regular sessions at your own site, in line with the Forest School ethos.

“The trips yesterday to Born of the Forest were truly magical. The children had the most amazing experience exploring, playing, learning, creating, and investigating. Of course, the visit from Santa was the icing on the cake. He certainly rocked it and was by far the best Santa EVER! Lauren was pretty amazing too, of course. I have had so many positive comments from the children, staff and parents. Thank you very much for accommodating our request for us to come and meet Santa in the forest. ”

“I just wanted to send an email to say a huge thank you! I brought my reception class last week to your site for their first EVER school trip and it was absolutely wonderful. It was so great that we were able to have such a positive experience on our first day trip away from school, especially during current circumstances and it was completely down to your brilliant environment and staff. ”
