Our forest school approach recognises the importance of outdoor play, and subsequent impact on physical and mental health, confidence, and connection to the natural environment. The children spend a large proportion of the day outside, walking, den-building and enjoying the time and freedom to marvel and explore the natural world around them. Organised activities such as planting, insect spotting and extended walks out in the local surrounding area provide structure and variation between each days, and enables the children to develop resilience, fine-motor skills and their understanding of the natural world around them.
​
Our indoor space is bright, warm and airy and is set out each day with activities which support our theme of the week and reflect the children’s current interests - a traditional nursery school curriculum, including a gentle introduction to phonics, a reading scheme for those keen to participate.

'The Acorns Nursery and Forest School was recommended to me by several friends, and now that I am sending my two boys there, I can see why. The staff are very caring and it's evident that they are well "tuned in" to the needs of each child. Communication with parents is excellent, and staff are always available for a chat. My two boys love that they get to spend so much time outdoors - riding scooters, going on woodland walks, etc. The setting couldn't be more idyllic.'
