We were so sad that children were unable to visit us in the summer to take part in our school visits and forest school programmes. We know just how much it means for children to access the outdoors and experience nature first-hand.
You can imagine our delight when the Department for Education gave the go ahead for non-residential educational visits from September. We have put in extra COVID-19 protocols for all our programmes and will for the moment only be catering for one class/bubble at a time. We are thrilled that schools are now booking visits for this autumn and 2021. Our forest school programme in school grounds is also up and running in primary schools and nurseries.
Please support us by booking your school visit (there are no cancellation fees) and let’s hope we can all enjoy the great outdoors together again soon.
Many thanks to all of you,
Rowan, Katie and Carol
