Forest School Development Officer

We have created a completely new role at Nursery. Our Forest School Development Officer will both work alongside our Pre-School staff with our children but also have the role of actually helping us develop our forest school facilities by undertaking a range of projects including starting using our new polytunnels for growning organic produce for the Nursery, planting an orchard, helping us prepare for a really exciting new shelter, preparing for our ducks, planting fruit bushes, designing new structures and many other things.

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.
