Woodland Discovery.

What is a woodland discovery session?

Learning through the natural environment, the group will undertake team and individual tasks. Groups will learn to identify different trees and to make things using natural resources. Individuals will learn about the various levels within the ecosystem with the tree at the centre.

The group will gain from the day an increased awareness of the importance of trees in our wider ecosystem and how we can all help to protect our native woodland through more sustainable ways of living.
