Forest School Sessions
Since opening in the Summer of 2015 we have worked with a variety of groups including:
-
Activities week sessions for secondary school students.
-
An after school club at a local primary school for Key Stage 2 students.
-
Holiday club sessions for a group of children between 5 and 11 years old
-
A parent and toddler session
-
Family den days.
-
Saturday Club sessions
-
A regular, weekly progamme of sessions for students at local alternative provision schools.
-
Successful taster sessions for children from local primary and secondary schools.
-
We have run a long term pilot programme with a group of year 5 and 6 students. During this programme children the children became really familiar with the site, learnt lots of new skills and developed hugely in terms of physical and social confidence.
-
Annual sessions for all students from a local primary where each class attends for a day in the spring/summer.
-
Ongoing Wellbeing sessions for adults struggling with mental health difficulties.
-
Regular tutored sessions for people learning to whittle and carve spoons
We are lucky to have several different areas to use at Hakeford Woods with 4 main Forest School camp areas, each with shelter and a unique character. We have a number of compost toilets on site and areas for food a drink preparation.
