OUR OUTDOOR PROVISION
We are located overlooking lake Burwain in the heart of Foulridge. Our setting overlooks the stunning countryside of Foulridge with views of fields, trees and much loved wildlife.
Each age group has access to the outdoors from their room using same level flooring and patio doors, this ensures children at all ages and stages of development can access these facilities.
Alongside their own outdoor play areas we have access to our grassed area and woodlands which houses our mud kitchen where children can experience different textures and opportunities.
Our extensive outdoor provision ensures that throughout the spring and summer months we can offer extra curricular sessions to the children these include football sessions and bikeability classes.
Our locality gives us great opportunities to explore the wider community visiting local amenities, shops, access to mainline bus services so that we can visit places further a field. Outings of late have seen the children take part in many activities including a day at Gazegill education centre and farm, Eureka children's museum, pets at home, local shops and post office, Barnoldswick beach, Supermarkets, pet shop, local parks, the library, sensory room and transport journeys.
Lakeview Forest School
What is Forest School?
Imagine a realm where the whispers of trees and the rustle of leaves form the backdrop to learning; a place where every sound ignites curiosity, and every shadow hides a new adventure. Forest School is an enchanting educational approach that brings children into the heart of nature, encouraging them to explore, play, and learn in a magical woodland setting.
Forest School Vision
We are helping children craft a positive future for themselves. Our vision is that the Forest School will aid in developing self-esteem and resilience, while also encouraging independence and social skills by offering opportunities for teamwork. Children will have the chance to connect with the environment on a deeper, more satisfying, and trustworthy level. By connecting with nature and being outdoors, we hope to assist children in finding ways to regulate themselves. As many of our children already enjoy being outside, we believe that making provision for this will help them to settle in more quickly, thereby better preparing them for the classroom.
