So much happens behind the scenes at Forest school including site safety assessments. When I arrived onsite this morning, I was greeted by these 2. The male was acting territorial and there were small kids arriving shortly. Thankfully he moved off the road and back to the pond a safe distance away so that we were not imposing any stress on them, nor was he a threat to our group.

What wildlife had posed a hazard for you in the past? Any good stories to share?

Do you ever wonder what our Mentor’s do outside of forest school?

They deepen their relationships with the natural world, themselves and others, living out our vision daily.

It was a warm day at Forest school today!

It was a good day for climbing and building a snow forest friend! Ou friend was complete with deer dropping eyes, stick nose, and fescue grass mouth ⛄️

2 wolves strategizing their plan to take down a moose.

It may just look like play, especially to them. But, there were so many conversations about predators and prey and it evolved into scavengers and life cycles.

Never a dull day with these groups!
