Inspired by the improved confidence and desire for learning that our older children have gained from the Forest Schools Initiative, we have now developed an exciting outdoor area for our under-threes.
We are based at Knightlow C of E Primary School, which transformed its area with mature trees into a forest school. Our older children visit the area once a week with our two trained Forest School leaders.
The area for our youngest children is called 'Twiglets'. It is not huge, but it is stimulating and with the exception of the groundsman hired to remove the turf, we have created the area ourselves for just under £1,500.
