Forest Schools
Forest Schools takes place in the village woodland in Wykeham's woodland and the outdoor area at school, and is run by trained federation staff, Mrs Harrison and Mrs Bass. We believe all our children should have access to the outdoors as part of their development, fostering a relationship between the environment and learning.
We run these sessions in all weathers so make sure your child has appropriate clothing and footwear with them!
