Did you know our school is currently working to gain Forest School status? Forest Schools is an initiative designed to provide pupils with regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence and self-esteem through hand-on learning experiences in an outdoor setting. It is hoped theses sessions will encourage our pupils with a lifelong connection and curiosity with the natural world as well as developing the following aptitudes:

• enhanced self-regulation skills
• being able to cope with and learn from failure
• building resilience (the skill of coping with risk and failure)
• gaining a sense of achievement
• increase motivation and concentration
• Improve problem solving
