These four-hour sessions, inspired by the Forest School ethos, are packed with nature play, bushcraft, storytelling, games and hands-on activities like bug hunting, den building, and tree ID — all designed to build confidence, curiosity and connection with the natural world.
Children will also help prepare and enjoy a healthy campfire-cooked lunch, with snacks and fruit included.
Funded places available through the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) programme, with limited paid spots at £30 per child, per session.
This Easter we are holding sessions in in the Countess of Chester Country Park and at our Bidston Hill Country Park site on the Wirral. For more information on location, dates and program click link below.
