Overview

As a child-centred, collaborative and investigative provision, we want you, as a parent and carer to understand the wonderful opportunities that your child will encounter, all the riches, all the scope, and to appreciate the possibilities of taking part in this special adventure.

At our Nature Nurseries we provide children with a full Forest Schools program that we require both children and parents to invest in so that you can all reap the benefits. For the full benefit of The Forest Schools experience, children will attend at least 2 full days per week to ensure that they can be truly engaged with the ethos which develops deeply over time.

This immersion also allows children to settle more easily and be more comfortable and tuned in to their surroundings and everything the Forest Schools Program has to offer.

Our sessions run from 8am – 6pm, we do not offer half day sessions, like other provisions, as The Forest Schools Program requires your child to spend the whole day in the woods.

Forest Schools Kindergarten gives children the time, space and freedom to play, whilst immersed in their natural environment.

Nature creates awe and wonder, it sparks curiosity and motivation to learn in a unique and holistic way. This inclusive approach is developed using the natural elements, through the changing seasons and nurtures resilience, resourcefulness, responsibility, resolution and reflection. It equips children with a positive sense of well-being and the personal, social and emotional skills needed to grow into independent, confident individuals with a passion for life, that Joie d’Vivre, It is nature’s gift to children!
