OWL – Outdoors with Learning.
At Bassetts Farm School, our OWL Forest School offers a world of adventure and discovery for all children. Nestled within our woodland space, children immerse themselves in hands-on learning experiences that develop confidence, resilience, and a deep connection with nature. Activities such as pond dipping allow them to explore life up close, fostering curiosity about ecosystems and habitats. Around the campfire, they learn essential outdoor skills, from fire safety to cooking, while also building teamwork and communication skills in a fun and engaging environment.
Outdoors With Learning
At Bassetts Farm School, we believe that learning should be an exciting journey, and our OWL Forest School ensures that all children experience the magic and wonder of the great outdoors.
Our OWL Forest School is carefully designed to support and enrich the school curriculum. Whether it’s using natural materials for maths, storytelling in the outdoor classroom, or linking science lessons to real-life experiences in the outdoors. Activities like den building encourage problem-solving and teamwork, while seasonal nature hunts help children observe and appreciate the changing environment around them. These experiences provide an invaluable link between classroom learning and the natural world.
