Summer Term bookings for our Unplugged Clubs are LIVE!

Following a successful Spring term at Bell Farm School, bookings for our Unplugged after-school clubs are now LIVE for the Summer term! Starting after the Easter holidays, we are offering two clubs in the Forest School area designed to help children reset, regulate, and swap "screen time for green time"

🌳 Unplugged Forest Club: A space for child-led play, woodworking, and campfire activities to build independence and life skills.

🎨 Unplugged Young Artists & Creators Club
A brand-new club for unleashing children's imagination and creativity. Children will experiment with raw materials like clay, wood, textiles & metal and have the freedom to create and design in their own unique way.

Both clubs focus on connection with nature and offer a much-needed break from digital distractions.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mothers out there ❤️
Motherhood often reminds me of trees. We stay deeply rooted no matter the circumstances, adapt to changing seasons, and remain strong and loving even when no one sees the effort behind it.

One of our lovely volunteers shared this poem with me, and it felt like a beautiful reflection of the strength and warmth that mothers bring into the world.

The first light after winter,
Her endlessly warming glow
Glittering on the river,
Its life-sustaining flow

The morning dew
That arrived without a sound
Left everything refreshed
Wherever she was found

Guiding us back
Like stars in the night sky
Each glimmering constellation
Like the twinkle in her eye

Rooted deep in the earth,
She sways but never breaks
Withstands the changing winds
By doing whatever it takes

The birdsong at sunset
When the shadows grow long,
Promising a better tomorrow
Where we all belong

Thinking of all the mothers in our community today. 💛

Happy International Women’s Day 💓✨️💃

Today felt like a very special day, as I allowed myself to pause and be taken care of something I don’t often do. Like many of you reading this, I’m usually the one on the other side, giving and looking after everyone else. So receiving a beautiful sauna treatment, drinking cacao, and spending the day in the company of other women felt very nourishing.

So many of us are used to putting ourselves and our needs last. But we are just as important as everyone else. On this Women’s Day, I wish that we allow ourselves moments to pause, to receive, and to be cared for too. ✨

Thank you Milda .us for sharing this day with me, same time next week 😉💃✨️?

“Imagination is the source of every form of human achievement.” Sir Ken Robinson

Children are brilliant at coming up with ideas, especially when they have the freedom to experiment and invent on their own terms. Their imagination switches on and they get into a creative flow, a magical state that I have witnessed many time at the

Today, during our 1st afterschool club at Bellfarm School, I enjoyed watching children getting into the creative flow and was so impressed with a group who started a Stick Shop, complete with a handmade sign, their own currency, products and a thriving little enterprise ;)

Often, those childhood ideas can become the seeds of future careers 🙌✨️

🌳🔥February Half Term at the Tree Canopy Woodland
Starting Monday 16th February | 4 days (Mon–Thurs)

Winter can be a tough season. Short days and cold weather often mean less time outdoors in the fresh air and far more time spent on screens. A lack of time spent outdoors being active can affect not only adults but children too. Some children may become more fidgety, withdrawn or display changes in behaviour.

To help regulate and thrive, children need time in nature to play freely, create, explore, and spend time in the company of their. Time outdoors helps children to regulate and supports their mental and physical wellbeing.

This February half term, we’re inviting children aged 7–14 to swap screen time for time at our Enchanted Tree Canopy Woodland in Walton-on-Thames. Over 4 days, we’ll offer a supportive outdoor environment where children can play freely and use their imagination through activities such as:
Arts and crafts, den building and inventing, woodworking, foraging and cooking over
, relaxing in hammocks and playing games and having fun with peers

💚 Together with my team, we can’t wait to welcome the children back into the woods this February.
Spaces are limited, so early booking is recommended.

Since unplugging at the start of the year, I’ll be honest… it’s been hard to turn the computer back on.

I travelled back to Morocco and lived in a small village at the foot of North Africa’s tallest mountain, Toubkal. I stayed with a Berber family who live a traditional way of life. Karima ran the home alongside her mother-in-law while her husband earned money working with tourists. Their children, Kautar (8) and Aman (10), went to school and spent their days much like children everywhere — just with a little more freedom.

Kautar became my guide around the village, walking me down the mountain to the local shop, popping into my room for sweets, and inviting me to play. Yet, like children all over the world, she and her brother were also drawn to their parent’s phone, funny reels, games, easy entertainment.

It made me wonder: how can we, as parents and educators, make real play feel more rewarding than scrolling, so children choose exploring, outdoor play and time with friends?

This is exactly why Unplugged Forest Clubs offers a space in nature where children can freely play, be creative, and build real friendships.

Unplugged Forest Clubs are back from February Half Term and bookings are now open.
