Our Forest School
Leaps & Bounds Day Nursery is proud to offer Forest School sessions. This wonderful programme puts children in close contact with nature and all the many benefits that it brings, particularly in this increasingly technological world.
As well as learning, first hand, about the natural world around them, children will get a great sense of discovery and adventure within local woodlands and other natural habitats. Through the Forest School programme and its many opportunities, the children will develop knowledge, confidence, independence, resilience and creativity. They’ll discover skills they didn’t realise they had and will develop physically, emotionally, socially, linguistically and spiritually.

Indeed, Forest School works on the ‘whole person’. It’s a great equaliser too, often helping children to create lasting bonds with others, naturally enhancing social skills and giving the children a wide range of transferrable and practical life skills. What’s more, it encourages children to adopt a healthier lifestyle. With all its benefits, we firmly believe that Forest School is priceless for any child.

Our nursery’s trained Forest School leaders run outdoor sessions with the children in local natural spaces around Edgbaston and the Birmingham area, including Edgbaston Reservoir and Summerfield Park.
