With Nature is proud to work with local Community Groups, Nurseries and Schools.
Our Forest School and Wild Beach sessions are bespoke to your setting, focusing on the needs of your children and young people. We are experienced in working with children and young people of all ages from both mainstream and specialist provisions, supporting their induvial needs and developing confidence and resilience through hands-on activities in the natural environment. Based on the Forest School Ethos, With Nature provides a space where children and young people can interact with the environment around them in a way that suits their needs at that moment in time. There is no pressure to engage in supported experiences, but they are provided should the children and young people be interested. This child-centred, play-based learning approach builds collaboration, risk assessing, confidence, self- esteem and more.
On Mondays With Nature Forest School provides sessions for small groups of children who are Home Educated or flexi-schooling. Supporting parents remain on site during these two-hour sessions. These sessions are also suitable for children who are experiencing EBSA or other reasons to not currently attend school. Please contact Nikki if this is a provision that you feel would benefit one of your pupils. There are Primary and Secondary age sessions available on Mondays during term time.
With Nature can also provide outdoor learning opportunities with curriculum focus, if Forest School isn’t quite what you are looking for. As an experienced teacher, our lead practitioner can tailor topics from the curriculum to be delivered outside on your school grounds.
Nature crafts is also a session we can provide. We work with hand tools to create art using natural materials, for example: dream catchers, wind chimes and nature weaves.
Within the Community, With Nature is keen to share its passion and skills to support other local groups. We enjoy supporting and running workshops that enable young people and adults to spend time outside connecting to nature.
Whether you are looking for one off sessions, regular sessions, collaborations or to enquire about individuals attending, please contact Nikki on [email protected] to discuss your requirements.
