Philosophy
We follow the Forest School curriculum philosophy, Forest School - which gives children the opportunity to experience unstructured, child-inspired play that is 100% outdoors. Nature is our teacher as we play and explore the natural wonders of the outdoor world. The children guide their own learning as they choose activities and topics they are interested in while outside. We believe the diversity and richness of sensations and experiences offered by being outside helps children develop and grow.
