My wish is to deepen my own connection with nature and to relive childhood memories of nature the smells,the sounds ,the tastes ,the feeling of what nature gives me .I want to share this and hopefully, all of our hearts will be full of the magic nature will freely give us.
there’s no APP for that!!
we will den-build,learn how to safely make fire, and whittle ,play games and learn what is around us, above us and underneath our feet and much much more awaits those who come to experience Rain or Shine Forest School............
