Young Explorers is a group for 7-11 year old children who are particularly interested in nature and science. It is not Forest School, but is run with a Forest School ethos in that it is responsive to the interests of the children in the group and natural events, and is designed to foster a caring attitude towards the living world.
Young Explorers meet one Saturday a month in term time. The group goes out and about – adventuring through the forests, marshes and meadows of the South Yare Valley landscape – to help conserve the wildlife and meet local experts with the knowledge and passion to foster the children’s interests.
While on our adventures the children learn some techniques for exploring different habitats; collecting, observing, and identifying plants and animals; as well as using tools to carry our conservation work.
Young Explorers is supported by South Yare Wildlife Group
You can see examples of trips we’ve taken on our facebook page and in the gallery.
This is a long term group which is booked termly. If you would like to enroll your child or put their name down for the future please contact us.
