Bird Boxes and Bio-Diversity.
12/12/2020
With help from our children, we have been making bird boxes of different sizes and designs and placing these in trees around our Forest School. We want to increase the bio-diversity of the Forest School and hope we can attact more birds (and bats) to nest wihtin the site.
The new bird boxes are however, only the start of our environmental ambitions. We have now commissioned an ecology consultant to advise us on how best we can increase the bio-diversity of the site (including the provision of a lake!).

The benefits of outdoor learning
We passionately believe that children experience a huge range of benefits when they are playing and learning outside in natural environments. The natural world provides an infinite amount more learning resources and opportunities that can ever be provided in a single room or playground. This why we have purchased a completely secure and private nine acre field in Denholme, which it is in the process of developing into our own forest school facility, where children can be taken to enjoy playing and learning all day in a totally natural environment. We are not alone in believing this as a large number of studies show that children benefit from learning outdoors in many ways.
