Grow-Wellbeing Holiday Adventure Club

Drop your children off for 4 hours of fun in the forest! Suitable for kids ages 5-15 years. For 16 days during the Summer holidays we will be running Forest Adventure Club sessions at our woodland site at Bidston Hill. The Holiday adventure sessions will follow the forest school ethos of child-led play and exploration, helping the young people to build resilience and confidence whilst exploring the outdoor environment. Children will learn to be custodians of the natural environment by spending time outdoors and through activities such as story telling, plant and tree ID and bug hunting. We will offer a range of games, stories and nature craft/bushcraft activities along with plenty of time for children to enjoy the woods with swings, hammocks and den making equipment. We will provide food throughout the session, including fruit on arrival, a healthy campfire lunch to warm and feed us and campfire snacks e.g. popcorn or toasted apple. Children will be encouraged to assist with preparing food for lunch to help them learn about nutrition and healthy eating. Food may consist of a hearty vegetable soup and homemade bread baked on the fire, veggie sausages or veggie burgers.

To find our woodland site, please park in the Boundary Road carpark for Bidston Hill. Follow the bridle path leading away from the car park (which runs adjacent to the back of Tam O'Shanter farm) and you will see signs directing you to Forest School. Follow the sign pointing you into the woodland on the right hand side and you will find the site.
