Hidden Woods Forest School Holiday Clubs

24th Jul 2023 @ 10:00 - 25th Aug 2023 @ 16:00

Hidden Woods forest school

If your child is aged 8-13, there will be something to captivate their imagination and support their development at our holiday clubs.

Even when school is out our children never stop learning and there’s no better environment to support your child’s growth than a natural one.

Outdoor learning is being increasingly recognised as playing an integral role in holistic child development. With benefits including improved language and communication skills, increased self esteem and confidence, more motivation and greater concentration to name a few. All that besides, it’s good clean, or rather not so clean, fun and has something incredible to offer every child.

As with all our activities for youngsters, holiday clubs follow the Forest School ethos of facilitating child-led learning and discovery in the outdoors. Everything we offer builds on the innate curiosity and sense of wonder that the natural environment brings out in children of all ages.

No two days are ever the same at holiday clubs. We take our lead from the interests of the children and the conditions on the day, exploring adventures like bushcraft, environmental art, woodland crafts and games, campfire cooking, journeying through the woods and of course, free play.

We enjoy taking the opportunity to pass on a range of hard skills to those eager and interested, including using tools and managing risk effectively, bushcraft and survival knowledge. Supporting the development of softer skills like cooperation, empathy, emotional intelligence and leadership are elegantly weaved throughout the sessions by our experienced leaders.

With our well-kitted-out-for-any-eventuality established camps, complete with large group shelters and fire pits, these days offer an exciting opportunity to play, learn and make new friends, whatever the weather!

The sessions run Monday-Thursday with each day starting at 10am and ending at 4pm. You can book either as individual days or weekly four day blocks.

The sessions will run on weeks commencing 24th July, 31st July, 7th August, 14th August and 21st August 2023.

For children that need to be dropped earlier or collected later, we have supervised free play in the camp from 8.30am-10am and 4pm-5.30pm. There is an additional charge of £6 per child per session per day for this option (or £24 for 4 day blocks). These can be added to your booking using our online booking system.
