At Sherborne House, Forest School is an integral part of our curriculum, offering pupils regular opportunities to explore, learn, and grow in the natural environment. Through hands-on, outdoor experiences, children develop confidence, resilience, teamwork, and problem-solving skills while fostering a deep connection with the world around them.
Our Forest School sessions encourage curiosity and creativity, allowing pupils to engage with nature through practical activities, wildlife exploration, and environmental projects. Older pupils can extend their outdoor learning through our after-school enrichment programme, which includes bushcraft sessions where they can develop advanced survival skills, tool use, and leadership in a safe and supportive setting.
Whether in the curriculum or as part of our enrichment offer, Forest School at Sherborne House nurtures independence, well-being, and a sense of adventure — helping every child build skills and memories that last a lifetime.
