Some of the activities over the summer may include:

Using tools to make boats, necklaces, medals, mallet, swords and more
Den building and knot tying
Fire building and fire safety
Tree climbing and slacklining
Playing in the mud kitchen and other mud fun!
Campfire cooking (dandelion fritters, damper bread, marshmallow smores, drop scones, elderflower treats!)
Nature crafts (weaving, jewellery making, flower/leaf crafts. clay, hobby horses and other projects)

The children can choose what activities they want to do and are encouraged to come up with games and activities using their own imagination and interests.

Kit List
The sessions are 100% outdoors, rain or shine! We have tarpaulins we put up and have some natural shelter however the children must be dressed appropriately so are ready for all weathers! There is no such thing as bad weather... just bad clothing!
The children must bring:
Waterproof trousers and jacket/suit
Wellingtons or waterproof shoes
Packed lunch with a water bottle (we provide snacks, a hot drink and something the children make on the fire, we do not provide lunch) .
Complete change of clothes in a small backpack (long sleeved/legs to protect from bites, stings etc and two pairs of socks!)
It is always colder in the woods than the forecast temperature due to the natural shade from the trees so children must bring layers. This also helps protect them from stings, bites and grazes etc.
