Forest School practitioners in London:

The fruits of your labour!

Someone recently asked us if we would stock a pop-up bird-hide.
You asked - we sourced - we now stock!
You can find it in our shop here: muddyfaces.co.uk/shop/products/…

Awe and wonder at Forest School!

Thanks for the recent follows 🌳Janine Malloy🌱 Jamie Hounsell Ysgol Gymraeg Pen-y-Groes Healthy and Sustainable Schools - Southampton Azhar Uddin Janine Bristol and Beyond Stronger Practice Hub and Miss Ford.
