Forest School

Our children love our Outdoor Learning and really enjoy embracing the great outdoors.

Our Nursery children benefit from the sheer variety of exciting outdoor areas as well as a chance to connect with the natural world. Outdoor learning is at the core of our curriculum, as we believe that it is one of the most important companions in children’s growth and development.

Children’s learning can reach new heights with engaging activities that go beyond the traditional classroom setting. Here, your child will explore the wonders of nature by building shelters, identifying plants and wildlife, honing bushcraft skills, and enjoying creative play. Each activity is thoughtfully designed to nurture holistic development, making learning an adventure they’ll never forget.

Did you know?

Outdoor Learning offers numerous benefits. It promotes children's physical health through outdoor activities and a more active lifestyle in a stimulating natural environment. It supports mental and emotional well-being by reducing stress, improving mood, and boosting overall mental health.

The child-led, unstructured approach helps develop resilience, problem-solving skills, independence, self-esteem, and confidence. Additionally, Outdoor Learning fosters a deep appreciation for the environment, instilling a sense of stewardship and responsibility and inspiring lifelong habits of sustainability and conservation.

At Clevelands Preparatory School, our outdoor learning spaces provide an inspiring environment for children to explore, discover and connect with nature. Encouraging curiosity, creativity and hands-on experiences, these spaces support learning beyond the classroom.
