The first of four Forrest Schools sessions took place on Wednesday.  A great day was had by all.

The children were accompanied by Nicola, Susan and the Keeper of the Forrest where the children explored pond dipping, retelling the Gruffalo  story as well as  increasing their  knowledge and understanding of the environment 

The Forrest School approach believes in children’s right to play; the right to access the outdoors (and in particular a woodland environment); the right to access risk and the vibrant reality of the natural world; and the right to experience a healthy range of emotions, through all the challenges of social interaction, to build a resilience that will enable continued and creative engagement with their peers and their potential.
