We are excited to announce our next level 1 Forest School course will be taking place on 19th & 20th May 2025 at Sheringham Park in North Norfolk.
The level 1 course is a gentle introduction to the philosophy of Forest School, providing a solid foundation to the key elements of the Forest School ethos. It is perfect for people just beginning their journey in Forest School, those looking for some outdoor learning inspiration or those wanting to make sure Forest School ‘is for them’ before investing more heavily by undertaking level 3 or 2 training courses.
The course will be delivered as a 2 day intensive training course, followed by a visit to an established Forest School and online tutorial.
Please check out the course flier for further details.
