About this activity
Nook Forest School offers outdoor learning sessions in a woodland setting where children aged 0-10 can explore, play and develop confidence through nature-based activities. Led by an experienced Early Years teacher and qualified Forest School leader, each session encourages children to engage with the natural environment at their own pace, whether that's climbing trees, building dens, hunting for bugs or creating art from natural materials. Typical sessions include woodland exploration, den building, nature crafts, sensory play and seasonal activities such as campfires and storytelling.
Children learn to take manageable risks, build independence and develop a genuine connection with the outdoors. Sessions are designed to be relaxed and child-led, allowing time for free play alongside structured activities. Nook Forest School welcomes families who want their children to spend time outdoors, get muddy and discover the natural world.
The setting is suitable for siblings of different ages and parent-child groups looking for outdoor adventure.
