The aim of Forest School is to develop the person as a whole. The outdoor setting coupled with the
child-led learning process through small achievable tasks builds self-confidence and esteem, resilience
and emotional and social skills. These skills are transferable to other areas of your child's learning. 

Forest School is learner centred holistic programme through regular sessions, set in and using a woodland environment.
