My Journey

A passionate teacher's journey to bring a Forest School to fruition.

New School - New Ethos

Changing schools mid-Forest School training has not been ideal but arriving at a forward thinking school with immense grounds is!

After thinking about the new setting and carrying out a new site assessment I think I have come up with Greave's Forest School ethos statement!

Here goes... 

Greave Primary’s Forest School Ethos Statement

The ‘Forest in the Dip’ is a welcoming place where there are opportunities for all learners to develop an appreciation and understanding of the wonders of our natural environment; through a process of discovery and exploration.
The environment allows the development of confidence in all learners through taking risks and making mistakes alongside developing imagination and using curiosity about the wonders of the natural world.
Learners will be developing lifelong skills that will be transferable throughout schooling and into adulthood - including developing social skills through teamwork, communicating, discussing and reflecting.
