FOREST SCHOOL

Outwoods Forest School is a long-term, nature-based outdoor learning program that focuses on development and growth in our children, encouraging them to learn through hands-on, child-led experiences in a natural environment. The topics explored are linked to the curriculum, equipping children with a wide range of transferable skills and knowledge.

Through an ongoing program from Nursery to Year 6, Outwoods Primary School's Forest School nurtures children into environmental stewards. This allows every child to explore the natural world and understand the impact humans have on both their local area and the planet. Students then harness the knowledge and passion they've developed, feeling empowered to inspire both adults and themselves to create positive changes for a better future.

Forest School is facilitated by a dedicated team filled with knowledge and enthusiasm, including Forest School Leaders, Forest School Assistants, Teachers, and our wonderful parent and community volunteers.

Delivering this program is truly a collaborative effort, and both children and adults cherish their time in the Forest School environment.
