At our forest school camp, each day is filled with hands-on learning, with the majority of our time spent engaging in outdoor adventure and creative exploration. Activities are guided by the children's curiosity and the rhythms of the natural environment. Some of the engaging experiences may include, but are not limited to:
 
Shelter Building – Learn how to construct simple, weatherproof shelters using natural materials.
Raft Building & Water Play – Work as a team to design and float small rafts using logs, twine, and creativity.
Tree Climbing & Risky Play – Build confidence and coordination with safe, supervised climbing and movement challenges.
Nature Art & Crafts – Create with leaves, sticks, stones, and other found objects to make beautiful, nature-inspired artwork.
Hiking & Trail Exploration – Discover local wildlife, plants, and hidden forest paths through guided hikes.
Map Reading & Navigationa – Practice real-world skills like compass use, orienteering, and following hand-drawn maps.
Wildlife Tracking & Bug Hunts – Observe animal signs, explore mini-ecosystems, and develop a deeper awareness of nature.
Mindful Moments in Nature – Slow down with storytelling, journaling, or quiet time in hammocks under the trees to reflect and recharge.​
​
Every day at camp is an opportunity for growth, discovery, and joy in the great outdoors.
