What better way to spend a day in the holidays than outside in the woods with your friends or making new ones. We spend the whole day outside under the trees with the emphasis on play, this could be in the form of games, Den building , Natural crafts , Tree climbing , Exploring , Inventing , Nature connection or learning new skills like tool use , Fire lighting and campfire cooking. There really is something for everyone. The days will consist of lots of free play , gathering for snack and lunch around the fire circle where the children eat their pack lunch and weather permitting we will have a camp fire and do some cooking together if its toasting marshmallows, making pancakes or just creating our own natural fabric dyes this is a big part of the day. Everyone is ready for dinner and bed at the end of the day as its exhausting work having so much fun !!! We are fully insured and all staff are DBS checked and have undergone safeguarding training and outdoor first aid training.

Please send your child with the appropriate clothing for the weather, remember it is cooler under the trees so hats and gloves and lots of socks are a good idea for colder months and Sun hat and suncream for hotter months. Lots of layers are best , base trousers and long sleeved top and Jumper even in the summer! Coat and waterproof trousers, walking boots or sturdy shoes. Long hair will need to be tied up for safety Change of clothes for younger children. * LUNCH * Please pack enough Lunch and Drinks for the day We dont provide lunch, but we will be doing some cooking on the fire and a small snack will be available. (Weather permitting) Hot and cold drinks will be available. Please can I ask that you be mindful as we have a no PEANUTS Policy.
