Forest School is a unique educational experience that offers children the opportunity to succeed and develop confidence and self-esteem through hands-on learning experiences in a woodland or other natural environment.
At Woodlands Academy we aim to instil in our children a love and respect for the natural environment. Through our Forest School sessions, we hope to encourage independent, enthusiastic, and creative learners, who develop holistically through a carefully planned and interesting child centred approach.
We will go to Forest School every week on Wednesday Mornings.
Our Forest School area is on the school site and so we walk there across the school field.
