Education, but not as you know it!

Surrey Hills Forest School offers something Different

Set in the beautiful Surrey Hills countryside, our Forest School gives young children the time and space to play and learn, build confidence and self-awareness, learn about the natural environment and develop new skills.

With our Stay and Play sessions, there are plenty of activities to keep all young children entertained – we can even host a birthday party!

For Schools and Nurseries, we can tailor a forest school experience for children in your own setting or within 147 acres of woodland at Chantry Wood. And for anyone interested in being involved in outdoor education, we offer Training Courses to become a certified Forest School Leader.

With Holiday Clubs and Stay and Play sessions, there are plenty of activities to keep all young children entertained – we can even host a birthday party!
