Accredited FS Introduction Training in London (Level 1) JUNE
Based in London, The Hive delivers Accredited Forest School Training that focuses on innovative ways to engage pupils in Forest School, particularly in urban environments where access to outdoor space is constrained.
This accredited two-day course is designed to provide trainees with an introduction to the Forest School ethos and learning in the outdoors. The course aims to build knowledge and confidence and it is open to trainees with little or no experience of working in the outdoors. There are no entry requirements and it is particularly well-suited to schools, nurseries and community settings looking to build the confidence of their Forest School parent, teacher and community volunteers with a short accredited course, delivered in an easy format.
