A summary
Join us for a nurturing afternoon of woodland adventures, sensory exploration, nature-based activities, free expression, skill building, and child-led discovery in a supportive SEND-friendly environment. We begin the session with a gentle welcome circle, giving everyone the opportunity to settle in, connect with others, explore the visual timetable, and become familiar with the activities and expectations for the day. Activities are adapted to meet individual needs and interests and may include nature crafts, foraging, weaving, clay creations, sensory play, bushcraft, storytelling, and woodland exploration. Participants are encouraged to engage at their own pace, with plenty of opportunities for choice, independence, and supported participation. All sessions are rooted in Forest School principles, promoting confidence, wellbeing, and connection with the natural world. A range of free-choice activities are available throughout the day, including the mud kitchen, potion station, hammocks, den building, sensory experiences, and woodland games. Quiet spaces and opportunities for regulation are available for those who need them. A healthy snack is provided during the session, with dietary requirements accommodated wherever possible. Parents and carers are welcome to attend, particularly if their child benefits from 1:1 support or the reassurance of a familiar adult. We aim to create an inclusive environment where every child can access and enjoy the woodland experience in a way that works for them. At the end of the session, participants and leaders come together for a reflection circle where we celebrate achievements, share experiences, recognise new skills, and acknowledge each child's unique contributions. Your child is likely to get muddy, build confidence, make connections, and create wonderful memories along the way!

Cancellation Policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.

My experience consists of a leisure activity, on a specific date(s), and therefore the 14-day ‘cooling off period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 does not apply.
