Forest Area
During Spring 2019 our Forest Area was completed. This bespoke space is now accessible to all pupils. The area is used to promote wellbeing with pupils, staff and families. It is also used for prayer and meditation, boot camp and mentoring sessions.
A bespoke log cabin has been constructed, 12 tree stems were installed in the area for children to climb, sit and crawl under. The whole area has been wood chipped. The area has tunnels, bridges and a retaining wall to jump off and seating areas.
During Autumn 2019 a new barrier 5ft fence was construction and the area was enlarged. A rope swing was constructed, trees planted and further log, rope and den building areas were designed
