Forest Schools Adventure Camps
Book your place now on our first-ever Outdoor Adventure Camp – brought to you by Elite Forest School.
We are delivering two days of outdoor activities ranging from orienteering & shelter building to open fire cooking and everything in-between under the instructions of our qualified Forest School Team. There’s no WiFi in the woods to help the survivalists make a better connection.
We’ll be outdoors all day so children will need to be dressed appropriately; full trousers, full-length sleeved top, warm, waterproof coat and sensible footwear for the environment. In addition to this, children will need water bottles, a packed lunch and lots of energy!
Book your child’s place for an outdoor adventure to remember.

Our forest leaders are trained to level 3 forest school practitioners with many years of experience working in education. They hold certificates in safeguarding, food hygiene, first aid and have enhanced DBS clearance.
Our forest team are passionate about the forest school ethos and are committed to inspire the next generation. They understand the challenges faced by children today and the focus is upon child-led learning in a positive environment to encourage resilience, empathy, confidence-building and teamwork, whilst learning about nature and the environment we live in.
Sessions are delivered from our scheme which can be based upon a current topic of theme or linked to the national curriculum if required. We provide evidence of learning with each school through a newsletter produced each term.

Key Government Evaluation Findings
The evaluation suggests Forest Schools make a difference in the following ways:
- Confidence: children had the freedom, time and space to learn and demonstrate independence
- Social skills: children gained increased awareness of the consequences of their actions on peers through team activities such as sharing tools and participating in play
- Communication: language development was prompted by the children’s sensory experiences
- Motivation: the woodland tended to fascinate the children and they developed a keenness to participate and the ability to concentrate over longer periods of time
- Physical skills: these improvements were characterised by the development of physical stamina and gross and fine motor skills
- Knowledge and understanding: the children developed an interest in the natural surroundings and respect for the environment.
