Autumn Term 2025

Join us on Thursday mornings during term-time for magical mornings of outdoor play and discovery at our Forest School sessions set in the beautiful woodlands of Barcombe. Designed for children aged 0–5, our sessions offer a relaxed, nature-based environment where little ones can explore, create, and connect with the natural world through a range of activities including imaginative play and sensory adventures. 

Our sessions are a gentle and enriching way for children to build confidence, develop their skills, and make new friends—all while surrounded by trees, birdsong, and fresh air.

Pre-walker siblings come along free, and we offer a discount for siblings too.

Come join our wonderful Forest School leader, Claire and explore and discover under the tress!
