Children in Northern Ireland spend too much time behind walls and screens, and it’s harming their health and wellbeing. Outdoor education is proven to make them happier, healthier, and more engaged. Other countries already do it - our children deserve the same.

From 2021: Guide to the Growing World of #NatureBasedLearning
“Earth and sky, woods and fields, lakes and rivers, the mountain and the sea, are excellent schoolmasters, and teach of us more than we can ever learn from books.”
John LubbockExcerpt: "Inspired by the Scandinavian embrace of #OutdoorLearning, the #ForestSchool movement migrated to the UK in the 1990s and has grown strongly ever since. In the US, the first nature-based preschool, the #NewCanaanNatureCenter, opened in 1967 in #Connecticut. The pace of nature-based preschools was gradual until, many say, after the publication of #RichardLouv’s #LastChildInTheWoods in 2005. Soon after, the growth of these schools went wild, experiencing a 25-fold increase over the past decade.
"Around the world, the forest school movement has also been growing strong. Whether you find forest schools in the UK, #BushKindys in #Australia, #waldkindergarten in #Germany or #MoriNoIe in #Japan, forest schools can be found in dozens of countries as parents and caretakers seek out the benefits of nature for their children, particularly for the early childhood years."

Kiddo made an interesting archeological find at #ForestSchool the other day. They had been studying ancient artifacts, like arrowheads, when he happened to find this rock with marks clearly carved into it. His fellow learners had many hypotheses about its purpose. #Archaeology #PandemicHomeschool

That weird feel when you sit down to shut off your brain and watch the silly YouTube entertainment channel and they actually showcase #alternative #education in a fun yet serious way. Worlds colliding.

Today spent the day at #ForestSchool with Wildernook Outdoor Learning. One activity was lighting a fire to make tea in a Kelly Kettle.

I talked about #neurodiversity in the context of outdoors education at last year's #ForestSchool Association conference, with Andy from Spectrum Gaming, Stefania Donzelli and Michael James.
It was a great discussion, I thought! My camera cut out after about half an hour, so here's a partial video. There's a link to the Forest School Podcast recording underneath.

Dia dhuit folks! Carraig Dulra is a #socialenterprise on a small #organic #permaculture farm in County #Wicklow Mike & Suzie Cahn set it up in 2007.Our core focus is community, #sustainability and #socialjustice, often using #permaculturedesign as a tool.

Winter Solstice at our #forestschool site:
Candles represent the sun (beeswax - even contains the summer sun!). Ivy & holly, two sacred plants of Yule. Holly for the Holly King who takes over the throne from the Oak King. The Holly King’s reign is about stillness, rest, learning and reflecting on the year. Ivy is symbolic of rebirth. We made ivy crowns for clearing our minds. Hot chocs & a sun shaped Choc Bundt cake, sang and put out some home made bird feeding bits. Loving a bit of ritual. -
@FreeRangePlay Really pleased to bump into you here as I'll be interested to learn more about your #ForestSchool and #ForestGardening activities. The community growing project that I belong to hosts various educational groups although I'm not involved in those myself.

Year 5 and 6 have learnt how to use a Bowsaw at Forest School this week. They then created lovely Xmas decorations with their wooden discs. 🎄🌳🍁🍂 #forestschool #ForestSchoolAssociation

Enlightened at #hylandspark. Pretty sure this doesn't count as #forestschool but there was something wonderful about the littlies excitement and the effect of the disco ball area on me...would have loved to just lie under it
