Family Forest School Day

Confidence and connection through fire, tools,
and woodland play

Join us for a special day of outdoor learning, play, and connection in the woodlands of Warley Woods. These one-off Forest School sessions offer a longer, deeper experience than our regular meetups, open to all families—home-educating or otherwise—who value time in nature.

What to Expect

🌿 Hands-On Adventures
Children will explore bushcraft skills like den building, fire lighting, tool use, and natural crafts. Whether they’re toasting something over the fire or helping build a shelter, every activity supports confidence, independence, and creativity.

🪵 Unhurried Time in Nature
This is a chance to slow down, connect, and enjoy an extended Forest School experience. With space to roam, make, play, and rest, children can follow their curiosity while soaking in the rhythm of the woods.

👣 A Welcoming Community
Parents are invited to stay and connect too. Meet like-minded families, share ideas, and enjoy being part of a community that values outdoor learning, child-led exploration, and mutual support.

🌱 Led by an Experienced Forest School Leader
With over a decade of experience, I bring a calm, grounded approach to helping children grow in confidence, learn practical skills, and feel at home in nature.

Whether you’re a regular or new to Forest School, this is a perfect way to spend the day outdoors together.

"Bracken is always so welcoming. We can't come very often, but he always makes me and my children feel like we belong. He  helped my daughter make a broomstick after her playing room on the broom with stick. He really tailors the sessions to the children. He's been so supportive when my son has had melt downs and be understanding of the chaos my 3 year old daughter brings." "He is very knowledgeable and his food is amazing campfire waffles and apple crumble have been my favourite. He also is so knowledgeable with knots and bushcraft. I've learned loads as well as my kids. I'd highly recommend the sessions. "
