Forest School and Wild Beach

“Climate change isn’t an ‘issue’ to add to the list of things to worry about, next to health care and taxes. It is a civilizational wake-up call. A powerful message — spoken in the language of fires, floods, droughts, and extinctions — telling us that we need an entirely new economic model and a new way of sharing this planet. Telling us we need to evolve”

— Naomi Klein

Forest school is a practice bringing children into regular and repeated contact with their local outdoor environment, allowing them to play, assess risk and develop a natural curiosity in the world around them.

Forest School training courses available from Sussex Wildlife Trust and Circle of Life.
