Activities for Schools and Groups

We are passionate about getting children outdoors, exploring and learning about wild places. Our experienced Education Officers deliver a wide range of practical workshops all year round, for all ages and abilities.

Whether it’s learning about endangered species, cooking over a campfire in your school grounds, or pond dipping at one of our nature reserves, we have something to offer everyone.

We can provide exciting activities for your school or group covering a range of environmental topics, such as habitats, soil and rocks, plants, animals and rivers.

Why not bring your curriculum to life with a visit to one of our flagship nature reserves - Langford Lakes or Lower Moor Farm or we can come into your school.

“The workshop has provided a fantastic stimulus for the rest of our science learning this term. The children were highly engaged and interested in everything and they had so many opportunities to explore their learning in a practical way. It was the perfect science topic launch.”

If it’s Forest School you’re after, our team of qualified Forest School Leaders can deliver a Forest School programme in your school grounds or on one of our reserves with individual pupils, groups or whole classes.

We also offer school and community grounds development and LiNE (Learning in the Natural Environment) training days for staff. Contact us for more information.
