A summary

This event is only for pupils of Holland Junior School. This is available to all year groups. We will keep a consistent 'bubble' of children for the half term, offering a block booking only. The club will also be fully outdoors, so there will be no mixing of classes inside the school building. We will meet the children after school on the back playground, where we will continue to the Forest School where we will play games, have fires, use tools, and most importantly have lots of fun! Coming home with lots of stories to tell! A full email on kit etc will be sent out upon booking confirmation.

About your Mentor

Seeking Wild·Reconnecting kids with the wild

Seeking Wild has been set up to connect children back to nature. Facilitating a space for children to explore, play and learn in a wilder environment. In a world more disconnected than ever from the natural world, it’s never been so important to get children back outside having real life meaningful experiences in nature. Seeking Wild is comprised of Reece Allen and Lydia Crook, along with other occasional skilled and passionate mentors who believe in the philosophy of Seeking Wild. Reece Allen - I have worked with children for the last 4 years, my journey first started as a football coach. Which led me into working in a primary school as a HLTA & Forest School Leader, ultimately leading to me setting up Seeking Wild. As well as being a qualified Forest School Leader, I am passionately deeping my knowledge and skills in other disciplines. Such as Bushcraft, Natural Movement and Nature Connection, through workshops, mentors and self study. What I love most is exposing children to new meaningful experiences in nature through exploration and play! Lydia Crook - My love for working with children started a long time ago! I was an Au Pair for a year in France when I was 18. I then went on to study Sociology and Politics at university, and whilst at university I enrolled on a yoga teacher training course to follow my passion for holistic wellbeing. As well as teaching in studios I ran student yoga classes, taught refugee and asylum seekers, and was involved in various holiday programmes offering yoga to children. In the last few years I have moved away from yoga slightly as I became increasingly aware that I love teaching children but felt that I wanted to offer more. I started to research different learning theories and found the forest school ethos which I felt very inline with. I have gone on to undertake my forest school leader training and have worked at Little Forest Folks Nursery, and with Seeking Wild during camps before now running Seeking Wild full time with Reece. What I love most is exposing children to new experiences and watching them explore in a child-led environment.
