Forest School Skills Training

Our Forest School Skills Training spans three days, focusing on practical skills needed for conducting forest school sessions. Participants will learn techniques such as lighting fires, cooking meals over open flames, building shelters, and using various tools and knots safely. The session leader will demonstrate these skills in real-world scenarios and provide guidance on teaching them effectively. Participants will collaborate with one another, using various tools and materials while practicing their skills.

Upon completion of the training, participants will receive feedback and complete unit two of their training program, along with a certificate. This training is suitable for individuals pursuing forest school training, educators looking to improve their teaching methods, and families interested in the program.

  • Knots,

  • Shelter (both man-made and natural)

  • Tools Usage (emphasizing safe usage and effective teaching methods for tools such as knives, loppers, axes, shaves),

This session is hosted by Sherin, a therapeutic forest school leader with great passion and experience in discovering ways of harmonious living with the Earth.
