Forest School
At Parkside, we believe in the transformative power of nature in a child's education. Our mission is to cultivate a love for the outdoors and foster holistic development through engaging Forest School experiences. We aim to provide children with enriching opportunities to connect with nature, ignite curiosity, and develop essential life skills in an immersive, safe and natural setting.
We are committed to integrating Forest School experiences into our curriculum. We facilitate regular outdoor sessions, allowing children to explore, discover, and learn in a natural environment. We have dedicated Forest School leaders who create a Forest School curriculum that aligns with academic standards while emphasising hands-on, experiential learning. These sessions will encompass a range of activities, from outdoor play and team-building exercises to nature exploration and environmental projects that stem beyond the school grounds.
We are dedicated to promoting a sense of responsibility for the environment. Through guided reflection and discussions, children will learn the importance of conservation and sustainable practices, instilling a lifelong connection to nature.
