Stepping Into the Woods: A New Forest School Journey 🌳

As of 28th February, I’ll be stepping into a new role that I’m incredibly excited about — running the Saturday afternoon therapeutic forest school sessions with Alaria CIC.

Forest school has a special kind of magic. It offers space to slow down, connect with nature, and learn through experience, curiosity, and creativity. Being part of a therapeutic setting makes this even more meaningful, as the woodland becomes a place for reflection, resilience, and gentle growth.

I’m well prepared for whatever the weather brings — thermals and waterproofs at the ready — because forest school is about embracing the elements, not avoiding them. Rain, mud, birdsong, rustling leaves… it all plays a part in the experience.

I can’t wait to get started and to see what unfolds among the trees, the wildlife, and the changing seasons. Here’s to muddy boots, open skies, and meaningful moments in the forest. 🐓🐸🌸
