Embracing Nature and Outdoor Learning for Holistic Childhood Development

"Outdoor learning and Forest School environments offer invaluable benefits that enrich education beyond traditional classroom walls. Engaging with nature encourages curiosity, creativity and problem-solving skills while promoting wellbeing.

"Forest Schools encourage children to develop independence, resilience and resourcefulness through hands-on exploration and play. These experiences nurture a deep connection to nature. Additionally, outdoor learning enhances social skills, teamwork and confidence. In a world increasingly dominated by technology, reconnecting with nature is essential for overall development.

"Embracing the principles of Forest School and outdoor education not only expands knowledge but also helps to build compassionate, resilient individuals ready to tackle future challenges with confidence." - Tamar Richards, Year 2 Class Teacher and Forest School Leader at Lancing Prep Worthing.
