Love life outdoors

The forest school is a place where nature becomes the classroom and exploration knows no bounds. Nestled within the beauty of the natural world, our forest school is a haven for young adventurers seeking hands-on learning experiences. Led by passionate and qualified educators, we provide a nurturing environment that fosters curiosity, independence, and a deep connection with the environment.

A free flow space

We have created a free flow space that offers various opportunities for exploration and engagement. Among these features is a cosy reading cubby, nestled amidst planters, where we cultivate a range of herbs and produce. We also prioritise the cultivation of wildflowers, specifically chosen to attract and support bees, butterflies and other essential insects.

The Curiosity Approach

our ethos

The Curiosity Approach embodies a dynamic and inventive approach to fostering child development during the early years. With a strong emphasis on placing children at the centre of the learning journey, it offers countless avenues for exploration, imagination, and creative expression. This approach opens doors for children to engage, discover, and shape their own learning experiences. The innovative method nurtures and empowers children, allowing them to flourish and grow.

Optimised growth

Children have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the wonders of the forest, learning about ecosystems, wildlife, and natural processes first-hand. From building shelters and identifying plants, to storytelling around the campfire, every moment is an opportunity for growth, discovery, and meaningful engagement with the natural world.

Come & Visit Us

The best way to decide if a nursery is right for your child is to visit, meet the team, and see children learning and playing together.

So have a good look around. We prepare our environment daily for the wonderful children that enter each day. So, after reading through this website, if you like what you see, please do call us on 01304 448383.
