Fun Activities for children and teenagers
Children and their families can get involved in family-friendly volunteering, including working parties and litter picks, or take part in forest craft workshops and forest school classes held throughout the year.

Forest School
Our Forest School classes run during term time every Thursday.
The floors, canopy and woodland noise change weekly, creating a perfect environment for children to explore in their own leisure, with their own agenda, under the watchful guidance of our Level 3 qualified instructor.
