A Little Bit of Forest School Magic
On Monday, our Reception children made their way to Forest School for a deliciously exciting activity...making their very own chocolate sparklers!
The children loved learning from their teachers how to carefully melt chocolate over the fire before creating their tasty treats. A wonderful opportunity to get hands-on, explore new skills and enjoy a little outdoor adventure along the way.
Visiting our on-site Forest School is the highlight of the week for our Nursery and Reception children! Younger ones use the time to explore new environments, space and different boundaries. It's an opportunity to engage their senses and introduce them to new textures.
Our older Nursery children are encouraged to use tools to make mud pies in the forest kitchen, build dens in the forest and toast marshmallows in the firepit. Activities are carefully linked to the nursery curriculum and also big events such as Bonfire Night.
Stay and Play
Our stay-and-play session, Lingfield Little Forest Folk, offers outdoor fun for ages 1-4 every Friday in term time. It is a fabulous opportunity for parents, grandparents or carers to join their toddlers and immerse themselves in a natural woodland environment for a morning of outdoor exploration, play, song, storytelling, crafts, practical skills…and mud!
A qualified Forest School practitioner runs the sessions in our very own Forest School facility on our Prep School grounds. They have been thoughtfully designed to provide a fun and safe environment to introduce children to the wonders of nature and the natural world around them.
Little Forest Folk is a free event open to the local community.
