Brices Woods Forest School - Nature of Learning

21/11/2025

💚 As we remember, remember November! 💚 - Join our Family Sunday sessions 💚

We celebrated Bonfire Night in true Forest School style, by making our very own little “guys”! It was all fun and giggles, and turned out sparking chats about the importance of fire safety between the children. 😂🙌

Ever popular, Monster Slop was on the menu once again 🤎 always a favourite.

We also had a blast making a giant skipping rope! The children jumped in, then the adults couldn’t resist.
It was so joyous to see the children’s faces light up as the parents stepped up, being a bit silly and brushing off their ‘boring’! Where kids make the fun and the parents join in! 🥰

We filled our hearts (and our bellies!) with laughter and slightly burnt Welsh cakes - the perfect Forest School treat. ❤️🔥

Last week we had a week off so I could learn some new games in Charlotte's Wood -
Why not wrap up, join in and jump around with some of the favourite games tried and tested by the Suffolk FSA Forest School leaders! 💚🙌🤩🏃😲🫶

Hello there, little mushroom! 🍄
Say hi to Rhodotus palmatus — the rare “Wrinkled Peach” we stumbled across in Brices Woods!
“It looks like it’s bleeding!” 🩸
Tiny, dramatic, and very photogenic little fungus.
What a thrilling little woodland surprise! 💚

🍁 Another wonderful day at Brices Woods Forest School! 🍁

We made the most of the glorious weather — drilling pumpkins , swinging through the trees, and whipping up lots of lovely treats in the mud kitchen. The children showed off their whittling skills, flung acorns at the old favourite Tin Pan Alley, and had so much fun playing our Ladybird Hide and Seek game 🐞!

There’s no better way to start a Sunday morning than out in the fresh air, in the woods, free to play, explore, and have fun. 💚

Why not join us next week!

🌳 What a wonderful session in Brices Woods on Sunday! 🌳

We had such a lovely time celebrating together — tucking into chocolate cake baked inside oranges on the fire (a real treat 🍊🔥), doing plenty of sawing, and creating even more brilliant conker masterpieces! 🌰✨

It was so special to have so many of the wonderful folks in the woods who’ve helped make Brices Woods the warm, welcoming, and creative place it is today. ❤️

Thank you to everyone who joined in — the laughter, teamwork, and joy made it a day to remember. We can’t wait for our next session later this week where I will be pulling out all the old much loved favourites! I hope to see you back in the woods for more fun and forest adventures! 🍁🍂

💚🌳 Brices Woods is BACK… and we’re super excited to be celebrating our 1st Birthday! 🥳💚

It’s wild to think that just a year ago we planted the very first seeds of this woodland adventure. Since then we’ve stirred monster slop in the mud kitchen 🤎, turned branches into cranes 🏗️, crafted🧵, toasted 🔥, laughed, and watched imaginations run free under the trees 🌳.
What a year it’s been 🥰 and we can’t wait to see what grows next! 💚🌱💚

🍂 Welcome Back Autumn Fun Session 🍁
Sunday 28th September | 10:30 – 12:30
I’m so excited to shake off summer and step into the colours of autumn with you! Expect autumn crafts made with natural treasures, games under the trees, and plenty of time for free play and exploration. A perfect way to ease back into the rhythm of the woods.

🥳 Birthday Celebration Session 🥳
Sunday 5th October | 10:30 – 12:30
One year of Brices Woods calls for something special! This session will be packed with woodland magic — the kind of play, creativity, and exploration that has made this past year so unforgettable. There’ll be surprises hidden among the trees, chances to craft keepsakes, and all the wild, hands-on fun you’ve come to love… with a celebratory twist 🥳🔥🍂

🥰 Our 1st Birthday Party! 🥳
🎂 …12:30 onwards
And then, the big birthday bash! We’ll throw open the woods for everyone who’s been part of our journey — and for anyone curious about what we do. Expect cake, chatter, woodland wanderings, and the chance to gather as a community under the canopy. A celebration of everything we’ve built together so far, and all the adventures still to come. 🐾

💚 Whether you’ve been with us from the start, popped in along the way, or are just a little bit curious – we’d love you to join us for this special milestone. 💚

🐾 Here’s to a whole year of adventures, and many more to come! 🌱💚🌳
