Twiglets

Come and join us at Twiglets, our delightful Forest School sessions for parents and children aged 2 to 5!

These weekly woodland adventures are designed to give families the perfect opportunity to connect with nature, explore new themes each week – from books and festivals to celebrations, and, most importantly, have a whole lot of fun together. 

Forest School is all about building confidence, enhancing social skills, and fostering a love of learning through regular outdoor play. In our sessions, children can develop their language, and social skills,  all while enjoying the wonders of the natural world with their family by their side.

What Makes Us Different

What makes Twiglets so special is the unique opportunity it offers families to spend quality time together outdoors, exploring the wonders of the woodland environment while learning, laughing, and growing together.

Each week, we explore a new theme, from storytime adventures and festivals to seasonal celebrations, giving children the chance to engage with the world around them in fun, interactive ways. Whether it’s listening to a story under the trees, crafting woodland art, or discovering the creatures that call our forest home, every session is designed to inspire curiosity and creativity.

It’s not just about the activities — it’s about creating lasting memories, encouraging a love of learning, and giving your child the freedom to explore, create, and thrive in the great outdoors.

Sessions & Fees

Our sessions run every Friday from 10.30am to 12pm and are just £12.50 per session – the perfect way to kickstart your weekend with a fun outdoor adventure!

Please note, we only accept block bookings for the 6-week course, as each week they will build on the skills they learn and progress through each session.  

As we’ll be exploring the great outdoors, please make sure both you and your little ones are dressed appropriately for the weather and terrain. The children will be full of energy, running around and staying warm, but adults might feel the chill if you’re sitting and watching, so be sure to layer up.

For everyone’s safety and enjoyment, please note that dogs are not allowed in our forest school areas.
