The Pre-Prep School
Forest School
We cultivate a sense of curiosity, adventure and discovery in our dedicated Forest School. In a safe environment, children are allowed to explore their imagination in an outdoor setting, creating magical experiences that stay with them throughout their time in the Pre-Prep. Children make friends in Forest School, learn how to interact with the outdoor world and are taught practical skills that aid their overall development.
The benefits of Forest School
Hands-on learning
Our immersive outdoor environment allows children to engage with the world around them. Through exploration and discovery, they develop a love for learning that lasts a lifetime.
Emotional development
Forest School fosters confidence and resilience. By navigating challenges and working collaboratively with peers, children build essential social skills and a sense of belonging.
Physical wellness
Outdoor activities promote physical health and well-being. Through climbing, running, and building, children enhance their motor skills and enjoy the benefits of fresh air and active play.
Creativity and problem-Solving
Nature inspires creativity! Our programme encourages critical thinking and problem-solving as children engage in imaginative play and hands-on projects.
Environmental awareness
By connecting with the outdoors, children develop a deep appreciation for nature. They learn the importance of caring for our planet and become responsible stewards of the environment.
