Every child has difficult moments outdoors. A five-year-old who refuses to join the group. A seven-year-old who throws a stick in frustration. A ten-year-old who shuts down completely when asked to try something new. These moments can be stressful for parents and challenging for educators, but they are also some of the most important learning opportunities Forest School has to offer. At Wildlings, we do not see difficult behaviour as something to eliminate. We see it as commu

Most school excursions in Singapore follow the same formula. Bus to a museum, follow a guide, fill in a worksheet, bus home. There is nothing wrong with that, but if you are looking for something more immersive and fun, something where students actually get hands-on, solve real problems and build genuine confidence, outdoor learning is worth considering. At Wildlings, we run outdoor school excursions for early-years, primary and early-secondary schools across Singapore. Our p

The Reggio Emilia ethos has found its way into a number of preschools in Singapore and has proven to be wildly popular. A long time ago at Wildlings we recognised the synergies between the Forest School and Reggio Emilia approaches to early years education and we've been successfully implementing this blended approach for our accompanied and pre-school programmes. Read on to find out how we do it. The Origins of Reggio Emilia The Reggio Emilia approach originated from a town

We've been away for four weeks touring the UK and looking for inspiration for our environmental education and Forest School programmes back in Singapore. The UK is a wonderful place for research as it has such a rich history in outdoor and environmental education, starting with naturalists and philosophers such as Wordsworth and Baden Powell in the 1800s. In 1908, Margaret McMilan founded London's first outdoor nursery for slum children. In the 1930s Kurt Hahn founded Gordons

After a successful six months of pilot programmes it was time to open our sessions to new learners keen on nature education, learning in the great outdoors and the Forest School approach to learning. We tested a new afternoon session format and took the plunge into Forest School for toddlers 18 months to 3yrs old. We were overwhelmed with the positive response and we'd like to thank everyone who came along to give Wildlings a try. Here's a snapshot of what happened in the For

Risky play was part of my childhood, skateboarding, roaming free and unsupervised with friends in the park and woods behind our house. We climbed trees, built bonfires and we had clear boundaries which we had to adhere to if we wanted our freedom. One of the best ‘toys’ I remember was an air rifle which I used for hours to practice shooting micro-machines in my garden. I have many fond memories and plenty of when things didn't turn out so well. Yes sometimes accidents happene

The wild world isn’t on our doorsteps anymore, and I’m not talking about the local manicured park which inspires path-walking and ‘look but don’t touch’. If we want our children to have nature in their childhoods, these days we have to go out and find it and grab hold of it and make it our own. Richard Louv, author of ‘Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder’ said “Nature was still out there. There was less of it, to be sure, but it was ther
