Our first Forest School session 2021

Class: Sunshine Room Forest School Year: 2021 - 2022

Today was our first visit to Forest School with all of our new children in Sunshine Room.

The development of Forest School began in 1993 and is based on a Scandinavian idea that recognises the importance of a child developing a relationship with nature. Having regular Forest School in our very own Robin Wood has many benefits.

Confidence grows
Social skills are enhanced
Communication improves
Motivation and concentration increases
Improved physical development including gross and fine motor skills
Increased understanding and knowledge of the natural environment

And most of all Forest School is enjoyable. Children can play, explore and discover!
