Forest School Teacher Trainings
We want to help you discover the joy of forest schooling.
The foundations of our forest school programs are - wonder, kaitiakitanga, and joy.
When we create space for wonder we unlock the potential inside every learner.
When we teach children the importance of katiakitanga, they become caretakers of their environment, their culture, and each other.
What children learn with joy, they never forget.
Join us on our property just outside of Whanganui for a learning experience that will reinvigorate your teaching. Whether you are hoping to incorporate a bit of nature play into your classroom, or are hoping to run a forest school program of your own, our workshops can help you gain confidence and skills.
If you can't come to us, we can come to you. Email us at [email protected] to see if we can offer our teacher training at a site near you.
