EXPLORING NATURE

Saturday morning urban forest school sessions provide a unique opportunity for children to engage with nature while learning and growing in an outdoor environment. Held in local green spaces, these sessions offer a hands-on, nature-based approach to education, allowing children to explore and connect with their surroundings in a way that traditional classrooms cannot provide.

These sessions are designed to promote experiential learning, where children can interact with the environment, participate in problem-solving activities, and develop essential life skills. Whether building shelters, identifying plants and animals, or working in teams to overcome challenges, the focus is on practical, enjoyable learning experiences that engage the senses and foster creativity.

The outdoor setting provides opportunities for sensory exploration and physical activity, which helps children develop a deeper connection with nature. The non-pressured atmosphere encourages children to learn at their own pace, building confidence and resilience in the process.

In addition to academic growth, these sessions promote social interaction, teamwork, and communication. Children work together, supporting one another, which strengthens their social and emotional development. The outdoor setting also allows for mindfulness and emotional regulation, helping children manage stress and develop a positive relationship with nature.

Saturday morning urban forest school sessions are more than just educational—they’re an opportunity for children to connect with the natural world, build lasting friendships, and develop a love for learning. The flexible and inclusive nature of these sessions ensures every child can benefit from this unique educational experience.
