Our home education sessions will help your child develop a range of practical and social skills, whilst learning about wildlife.
About this Event

In relaxed outdoor settings, we run a number of home education groups, where children can be themselves and work together to develop social skills, and to foster a deep understanding of wildlife and a love of the natural world. Activities may include den building, woodland crafts, using tools, and fire lighting.

This group runs in blocks, and sessions occur every Monday from 1 June to 6 July (6 Weeks)

The 1-week ticket is just for 1 July . If you’d like to visit on a different week, no problem — just click on the date you would like to visit below

Dates: 1, 8, 15, 22, 29 June, 6 July

This event is suitable for school-aged children. Please dress appropriately for the weather, as we will be outdoors for the whole session. Children must always be accompanied by an adult.
