Forest School Holiday Club
At Forest School Holiday Club, we believe that learning never stops, even when school's out. And what better environment to support your child's growth than the natural world?
Our holiday club is a wonderful opportunity for children, Reception age to Year 4 (age 4/rising 5 to age 9), to be immersed in nature in our magical outdoor settings. Our forest adventurers spend their days exploring, building dens, using tools, hunting for mini-beasts and creating works of forest art. We run, we climb, we balance and we laugh, thriving in spending time outdoors. Little Crickets approach is child-led and play-based, and we encourage children's imaginations to run wild!

- Waterproof jacket and trousers - these are not provided.
- Wellies or sturdy footwear.
- Complete change of clothes in a small backpack.
- Reusable water bottle, full of water, labelled with your child’s name.
