Forest School for Families
If you are looking for an exciting and fun way to make valuable connections with your children, developing their natural inquisitiveness and wonder of the world around them, then why not join us in the woods.
Forever Green Forest School provides great experiences where children (and adults) are encouraged to connect to nature, through woodland craft, foraging, bushcraft, outdoor cooking, storytelling and games.
In addition to the experiences we offer in our sessions, we guide the children in developing their emotional literacy and skills to support their mental health and wellbeing. Many of the adults that attend our groups have commented on how valuable they find the sessions for their own mental health and wellbeing too.
Take a look at what we have to offer below.
-
When you have a young family, things can often seem overwhelming and you can often feel lonely. Our friendly, welcoming group provides a safe space where you can relax and be, taking time to focus on yourself as well as your child.
Our Stay and Play group is booked in half term blocks to allow the children and families to get to know one another, build up confidence and a connection to the environment.
Each week is based around a theme, story or seasonal change, where new activities are introduced, amongst regular opportunities such as our hammocks, mud kitchen, bubbles and soft toy Forest Friends.

Our Home Ed/Flexi-School Family Forest Fun sessions are designed for ages 4 to 12 and their families.
These sessions provide families with an alternative education provision, through a holistic approach. Children and their families are given a range of experiences tailored to their needs, where they get the opportunity to build self esteem, confidence, problem solving skills, resilience, emotional literacy and social skills.
Sessions are booked in half term blocks to allow the children and families to build bonds with each other and the environment.

School holidays can be a tricky time to keep your children entertained. During school holidays, we offer Family Fun Sessions, where families can come and enjoy learning new skills and have fun in the great outdoors together. Each session has a theme or focus as well as an opportunity to use our hammocks, have a go on the slack line and build a den to name a few.
