Get Out More is running a Forest School Level 1 accredited training course, taking place Monday 2, Tuesday 3 & Saturday 7 September 2024 at Southroyd Primary School, Pudsey.  The training is for school staff from Pudsey Southroyd Primary and nearby schools

ITC Level 1 forest school training is an introduction to the forest school ethos. The Level 1 course introduces the Forest School Association’s Forest School Principles and how the approach can benefit the holistic development of children and young people. Learners will participate a range of basic woodland skills such as games, shelter building, fire lighting and tool work, enabling them to facilitate outdoor learning using different learner-centred processes while encouraging children’s social development, confidence and self-esteem.

This course is suitable for anyone working with children and young people including school staff, community workers, parents etc. It is ideal for those people who are wanting to gain skills for working outdoors with individuals and groups, those who want to explore Forest Schools within their own setting or those who wish to support a trained Forest Schools practitioner.

This is a Kindling Training course regulated by ITC Awards and delivered by Get Out More CIC

Our All for Play team is back with our Saturday Sessions, taking place in the beautiful woodland found within the grounds of St Mary’s Primary School in Riddlesden.

All for Play, a programme of outdoor play and forest school sessions, is part of Keighley Big Local, an initiative to make the Keighley Big Local areas of Riddlesden, Stockbridge, Thwaites, Parkwood, Hainworth and Red Holt a great place to live work and play! 

Due to increasing costs and funding coming to a close, we have had to make the difficult decision to increase the price for participants , as a way to sustain the forest schools beyond the Big Local Funding.  

Full details of meeting place, what to bring etc are in the booking confirmation which will be sent to you via email.
