Join the team from My Outdoor Classroom for this FREE Forest School session in the beautiful surroundings of Rimrose Valley.

This session is for children from Reception age to 11 years old.

Nature for HEART is a series of events and activities designed to get more and more people active on Rimrose Valley, connecting with each other and the park’s nature.

This is an exciting opportunity for children to enjoy FREE Forest School activities in the glorious setting of Rimrose Valley, funded by the National Lottery’s Awards for All programme.

Each session is being led by the team at My Outdoor Classroom who have been delivering Forest School events to children on the park for several years.

Sessions include:

· Child-led free play in nature

· Den building and various games

· Hammocks, swings and climbing trees

· Forest school earth arts & natural crafts

· Camp fire snacks

· Nature connection and education
