I was lucky enough to run some forest school sessions with the lovely Emily from Tribe Tooting. Via Furzedown Primary school we offered some after-school taster sessions on a Friday for 6 weeks in the summer term. They were a great success, the children really engaged with it and it was wonderful to see how immersive it can be. They made foraged for and made clay, built shelters, played chasing games, climbed trees, built imaginary villages, made leaf leaf crowns, made a damn and of course got lovely and dirty. One of my biggest challenges from the first week of my course is learning how to tie various knots, lots of practice will be required I think!
