We are an Outdoor Pre-School who follow the Forest School approach. This means that where possible, learning is initiated by those taking part, centred on the needs of the individual. We take a long-term sustained approach, inspiring the children through hands-on positive experiences. Surrey Hills Forest School is fully Offsted registered.

Our Outdoor Pre-School takes place on Mondays, Wednesday and Fridays from 8am to 6pm during term time at Birtley Estate in Bramley, Guildford. (Read more about our venues.)

Outdoor Pre-School, Guildford, SurreyA TYPICAL DAY AT OUR OUTDOOR PRE-SCHOOL

Let’s take a look at what a typical Outdoor Pre-School day could entail…

MORNING

The day starts with breakfast, if you want it – and who wouldn’t want toast cooked over an open fire?

Once breakfast is over, the children are ready to find out what fun is in store today. What will it be?

  • Exploring the woodland
  • Finding bugs
  • Building dens
  • Reading stories in the book corner
  • Cooing over an outdoor fire

The children are hungry and thirsty now – it’s time for a snack and a drink. The children help with the snacks and can help themselves. Perhaps its fruit or breadsticks, all washed down with a glass of milk or water.

Back to playing again:

  • Drawing
  • Mud kitchen
  • Climbing
