My Forest School sessions in Dawson's Walk Woodland give children opportunities to play and explore in the outdoors while building friendships
At Wild Wood Bristol Forest School we believe that attending a Forest School should feel a lot like camping in the woods, without the need to put up a tent! Our fun-filled sessions are wholly child centred, responding to the interests of the children that attend. Sequences of sessions help children gain a better understanding of the seasonally changing state of the woodland.
Some examples of activities include:
Team building games
Cooking on the fire
Creative Craft activities
Traditional tool use
Wood exploration
Woodland preservation
We consider risk taking to be an important part of learning. All activities are assessed on a risk/benefit basis, with suitable steps taken to ensure that children are challenged and supported but ultimately remain safe.
We aim to create a supportive environment where children's self esteem and personal confidence grows while developing valuable skills that they will use throughout their lives.
