The Forest School Approach is a transformative method of learning, where the great outdoors becomes the classroom. Rooted in hands-on experiences and driven by a child's innate curiosity, this approach embraces the wonders of nature to inspire, educate, and nurture.

What is the Forest School Approach?

At Green Shoots Muddy Boots, we believe every rustle of leaves, every chirp of a bird, and every droplet of rain holds a lesson. Nature, in its boundless beauty and complexity, offers an unparalleled platform for children to grow - not just academically, but emotionally, socially, and spiritually.

Our Philosophy

Participating in our Forest School Approach, children are

empowered to:

Benefits & Outcomes

• Discover Self-confidence: Overcoming challenges and trying new activities in a natural setting fosters a resilient sense of self-worth.

• Nurture Intrinsic Motivation: The world around us sparks a genuine desire to learn and explore.

• Cultivate Social Skills: Group activities and shared experiences in the great outdoors promote teamwork, empathy, and communication.

• Foster Independence: Freedom within nature’s boundaries encourages decision-making and self-reliance.

• Develop Environmental Stewardship: Hands-on interactions cultivate a deep respect and understanding of our environment and the importance of its preservation.

Our Sessions

Every session at Green Shoots Muddy Boots is a harmonious blend of structured learning and free exploration, ensuring each child's interests are catered to. Guided by trained facilitators, children engage in activities that range from woodland crafts to sensory

exploration, story sessions beneath the canopy, and much more.

Safety & Supervision

While adventure is at the heart of our approach, the safety of our young explorers is paramount.

All activities are meticulously

planned, risk-assessed, and supervised, ensuring a

balance between freedom

 and security.
