NATURE PLAY
Play goes 'old school' at our fabulous new nature play space in Dempsey
Weekly, most Thursday, Friday and Saturday afternoons. Please check our timetable on the bookings page for weekly variations.
NEW! Nature Play with Kidmando
class every Thursday during nature play at 4.15pm
Are you tired of indoor play gyms and pirate-ship playgrounds which offer the same limited play-formula for children? Then come along with your children and experience our nature space where nature takes centre stage and offers limitless possibilities for adventurous play and exploration for children aged 2 years to 12 years.
We mix it up each week with new play opportunities to connect children with the natural world. Through opening our Forest School site up for nature play we provide more opportunities for children to get outdoors without the regular commitment of Forest School.
PLEASE NOTE THESE ARE CASUAL SESSIONS BOOKED PER SESSION AND CHILDREN MUST BE SUPERVISED BY THEIR ACCOMPANYING ADULT AT ALL TIMES
"Nature Play provides the child with the space, place and time to follow their own play-urges – and you are the secure base" -
