Croí na Coille Forest School
What is Croí na Coille Forest School?
Croí na Coille Forest School is our approach to outdoor learning in Fedamore CNS. Jacintha, our teaching principal is a qualified forest school leader with an interest in outdoor learning pedagogy. She runs weekly forest school sessions every Friday morning in our Choill Bheag and all learning activities are closely aligned to the national curriculum and theme based learning that might be happening in our school that week. The philosophy of Forest Schools is to encourage and inspire individuals of any age through positive outdoor experiences. By participating in engaging, motivating and achievable tasks and activities in a woodland environment each child has the opportunity to develop intrinsic motivation as well as sound emotional and social skills.
