Children's Woodland Adventures originated in a conversation with Kris Radford-Rea (the Head Teacher at Edenham Church of England School) about how to get the best out of the beautiful surroundings around Edenham School, including Grimsthorpe Estate, located two miles away. It became clear that we needed to utilise the Estate, the school's conservation area as well as the local villages. Forest Sch
ool (after much research!) seemed the most logical and exciting way of using the space. Not only do children get the experience to learn new skills in an exciting and dynamic way, we can develop the activities to become part of new curriculum requirements. The project has been a huge success and feedback from teachers, children and parents has been extremely positive. Children's Woodland Adventures now provides Forest School opportunities for many schools across Lincolnshire.
