Forest School
Adventurous Acorns Forest School at Cippenham Nursery School
At Adventurous Acorns Forest School, we passionately believe that children (and adults!) have a right to quality outdoor learning experiences. We maintain a Forest School in our own school grounds, and it is against this enchanting natural backdrop that we lead Forest School and other outdoor learning activities. The aim of each session is to embrace the developmental opportunities that this glorious natural playground presents, enabling all learners to connect with nature, whilst engaging through a playful and practical approach and having fun along the way.
"...And into the forest I go, to lose my mind and find my soul!" - John Muir

During a Forest School session, the children excitedly identified a Tomato Frog. The children followed him back to the pond where he happily splashed around with his friends.
At Forest School we are very lucky to have spotted frogs in our pond, as the temperature warms up and we welcome spring. The frogs have come out of hibernation and have been basking in the spring sunshine in the pond .
Frog spawn has been laid by the frogs, we counted 48 frogs in the pond.
