When she finds and picks wild garlic, and then makes her own pesto and cooks the pasta to go with it around the fire, she is experiencing a deep connection to her environment and learning on many levels.<\/p><p>Pip responds very well to the atmosphere of freedom and choice. While trying to fill a vessel with water he is allowed to figure out for himself why it doesn\u2019t work the first few times, and feels a strong sense of achievement when he is finally successful. This trying and failing without interference is an important factor in developing emotional resilience.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c2ca3b6 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"c2ca3b6\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;shape_divider_top&quot;:&quot;waves&quot;,&quot;shape_divider_top_negative&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-shape elementor-shape-top\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-negative=\"true\">\n\t\t\t<svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewbox=\"0 0 1000 100\" preserveaspectratio=\"none\">\n\t<path class=\"elementor-shape-fill\" d=\"M790.5,93.1c-59.3-5.3-116.8-18-192.6-50c-29.6-12.7-76.9-31-100.5-35.9c-23.6-4.9-52.6-7.8-75.5-5.3\tc-10.2,1.1-22.6,1.4-50.1,7.4c-27.2,6.3-58.2,16.6-79.4,24.7c-41.3,15.9-94.9,21.9-134,22.6C72,58.2,0,25.8,0,25.8V100h1000V65.3\tc0,0-51.5,19.4-106.2,25.7C839.5,97,814.1,95.2,790.5,93.1z\"\/>\n<\/svg>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9a7ac6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"b9a7ac6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1920\" src=\"https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings.jpeg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-928\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings.jpeg 1920w, https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings-1024x1024.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings-150x150.jpeg 150w, https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings-768x768.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.forestschoolsnpt.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Seedlings-1536x1536.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34aafa9 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"34aafa9\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-96d31c3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"96d31c3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Practicalities\n<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b176a42 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"b176a42\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Each session is just under 2 hours long and includes drinks for the grown-ups and healthy snacks for the children.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-align: var(--text-align); color: var( --e-global-color-text );\">Please come prepared to get muddy and wear enough layers to stay warm.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-align: var(--text-align); color: var( --e-global-color-text );\">We offer booking in blocks, a half-term at a time (usually 6 weeks but this can vary).
