Qu'est-ce que l'école de la forêt ?
Forest and Nature School always takes place outdoors, in the same natural area, allowing kids to build a deep relationship with that place and its inhabitants. It is child led and emergent, and features lots of time for unstructured free play, which has been shown to have great outcomes for learning and holistic well being. This is a research-backed model of education rooted in supporting the ways children naturally thrive, learn and grow. Kids engage in inquiry, exploration, creativity, active movement, and various projects outdoors, on and with the land all day. Forest School leaders share skills such as woodworking, fire building, shelter building, nature based arts and crafts, and more, modeling respect and reciprocal relationship with others and with the land.

Recherche sur les bienfaits de l'école de la forêt et de la nature
De nombreuses recherches ont été menées démontrant ce que beaucoup d’entre nous savent déjà intuitivement : être à l’extérieur et apprendre dans un contexte de jeu libre, de motivation intrinsèque et de relations respectueuses présente des avantages étonnants pour l’apprentissage, la santé et le bien-être holistique.
