Under the guidance of experienced children's practitioner Elsie and forest school leader Josh, let your kids embrace their wild side, explore nature, learn about wildlife, and have a blast outdoors. 

Activities will include nature walks, animal encounters, and hands-on learning experiences including bushcraft and cooking activities. It's the perfect opportunity for your little ones to connect with the wild and make new friends.
