Get stuck in for some wild woodland fun with our October forest school at Saltaire. Practitioner Annie will have an exciting mix of ideas for games, crafts and challenges to keep children engaged and happy this October break!

Our holiday forest school sessions give children aged between 5 and 11+ years the opportunity to get outdoors and enjoy nature with friends whilst building resilience, learning new skills and exploring on their own terms. There are so many activities to choose from including whittling, games, den building, tree climbing and crafts, to name just a few.

The programme will be led by experienced and qualified practitioners who will bring lots of ideas to go with the children’s own for playing, building and creating with natural resources in the woods.

Key booking information:

1. If your child needs additional support please book on with full details then we will be in contact.
