Fantastic option for childcare in the holidays. My little one sees this as a real treat and not just a place he has to go whilst I'm at work. He counts down the days until he has Forest school and always has the best time. The leaders of the sessions are superb! They really engage the children and teach them so much, whilst also letting them have freedom to to just be in nature. Highly recommend.

Thank you for your kind review. We work really hard to make Green Planet a destination synonymous with fun, not just a childcare option. We're glad to hear your son counts down the days to Forest School events with us :)

Excellent forest school

My daughter has been attending pretty much since the forest school was set up. She loves it. It provides excellent life skills for the children, and opportunities I could simply not replicate at home. Every day is different, from learning how to be safe around a camp fire, whittling, sawing, pond dipping, den building, looking for mini beasts, learning about the environment and much more. Staff are helpful and nurturing. I couldn’t ask for more in a holiday club!

Fantastic outdoor club

This was a really great club for my 9 year old daughter with ASC-she loves the outdoors and although I was initially worried that she may struggle to follow instructions/keep herself safe - she came back buzzing and excited to go again having had a great experience with a knowledgeable and understanding team. She has been 3 times so far and each times has come away with a different positive experience. I would throughly recommend this to anyone with an outdoorsey child.

Thanks for your excellent review and recommendation. We love working with all children but especially those with additional needs. We find they excel in our environment and quickly build confidence which can be used in other environments such as when they return to the classroom.

Brilliant experience

My daughter has attended the Green planet Forest school twice now - both times in the winter months and she could not rave about it enough! She was so excited to be joining the crew again this holiday break and it once again did not disappoint! Very well run organisation with friendly approachable staff members. Highly recommend

Absolutley wonderful day

Absolutley wonderful day! A first time session for our 7yr old, she had an awesome time and literally came out of her day bouncing off the walls with excitement! She had so much fun, built a new found confidence with climbing of trees. Cooking breakfast, lunch and dessert were the highlights. Fabulous day and Will for sure be rebooking.

Fantastic experience for kids!

I would highly recommend Green Planet Forest school as a very special memory-making experience that children can get their teeth into during school holidays. My daughters (9 and 6) have both been to the forest days at Buckingham Primary School and Evenley Wood and have thoroughly enjoyed every moment. With campfire building, smores and hotdog making, den creations, woodland crafts, whittling, tree climbing and giant games of hide and seek … the fun is never ending! Mr Mud, Jack, Tom and the team are always welcoming and well prepared to support a wide range of children in having the best day ever, and what a great way to get our kids away from screens and out into nature. Thank you!

What a brilliant day

What a brilliant day! My 5 year old had a wonderful time and came out full of stories and excitement for the next time he goes. It was a freezing day and he never once felt cold- he was kept busy and learning all day long.

Wonderful

My son and daughter aged 7 and 4 attended holiday club in February half term at Evenley Woods. They thoroughly enjoyed it, highlights were roasting marshmallows on the campfire and the ‘compost toilet’. My son said it had been the best day of his life!!

Fabulous day!
My son has just done one day with Green Planet Forest School and had a fabulous time with all the various activities. A particular highlight seemed to be toasting marshmallows! Certainly one happy camper who will no doubt be keen to return.

"It's very, very fun. I love it" - adventurer's review

My adventurer has had a brilliant time at the Green Planet Forest School holiday club with Mr Nixon, Mr Mud et al over the last two days at Evenley Wood Garden. To find that both days were sold out was unsurprising!

Campfire cooking, stream walking, and den building are all staple activities for this holiday club, which my adventurer has enjoyed going to for a couple of years now. Staff are knowledgeable, experienced and - importantly - fun. Dietary requirements are happily catered for. I am booking the next holiday club immediately!

Great Home Ed sessions

Green Planet Forest School Home Ed sessions are amazing. I feel like a big kid there as the adults always get to join in. Weather it's campfires, axe throwing, den building etc, I seem to have just as much fun as my little one.

Mr Mud is brilliant and a natural with kids making things fun and humorous to keep them engaged. Teaching my 4 yeer old to axe throw he was so kind and patient. Explaining clearly what he needed to do whilst being encouraging and sharing in the achievement.

They have always been extreamly accommodating to our dietary requirements too, we never made to feel like we are a burdon.

Would definitely recommend!

I can not recommend Green Planet Forest School highly enough. My daughter has attended a few sessions now in the holidays both at Buckingham Primary School and the special days held at Evenly Wood Gardens. She always has an amazing time and just loves all the activities they have planned. The enthusiasm and passion of the staff shines through and its so inclusive. I feel very grateful this is available for my Daughter. Keep up the great work x

Wonderful forest school!

Wonderful! My daughter had the most fulfilling enjoyable day at Green Planet’s Halloween event today. She always comes home so happy. Alex and his team show genuine passion in what they do. They put their heart and soul into their days with the children ensuring they get the absolute most out of them. Children seem to be kept so well engaged. Highly recommend!

Cannot recommend highly enough…

Our son has attended regular in school Forest School, and holiday club camp, with Green Planet Forest School and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From toasting crumpets and marshmallows over open fires, to whittling spears, making and painting fairy doors, lighting fires, meeting unusual animals and ALL of this outside, he loved it. The team are fantastic, they know the children by name, are very caring (and also forgiving when you get pick up time wrong 😬) I’m so grateful for the summer holiday camps you provide. Thank you!

My son has attended 2 sessions in different settings and has thoroughly enjoyed both. He comes home with so many stories of what he’s been up to and so excited to tell us what new skills he’s learned that day. I really love the ethos the forest school represents and cannot recommend enough.

Brilliant Sessions

Both of my children (5 and 8) have attended two sessions this summer at Evenley Wood Garden. The sessions were brilliant, varied and they told me lots of stories of the things they had been up to. They had a great time, made new friends and thrived being outdoors all day. Thank you to Mr Mud and the team!

Every day is a Best. Day. Ever! 😃🌳💚

Can’t recommend GPFS highly enough 💚

I first met Mr Mud & the team when they took over the weekly forest school sessions at my daughter’s school. We now also enjoy several sessions a week over half terms and summer holidays 🌞 My daughter can’t wait for her campfire brekkie, cup of hot mud, and Best. Day. Ever! to begin each day 😃

The difference in quality between the Green Planet team and other child activity providers was quickly evident - I *always* get a personalised handover at the end of a session, and nothing phases the team or is too much trouble.

Being a nature lover and neurodiverse, time outdoors immersed in nature is not just fun but is integral to my daughter’s wellbeing and ability to self-regulate. Mr Mud, Jack and Tom are each incredible and understand the children’s individual needs - they are the only team my daughter will happily, consistently engage with and they are adept at supporting her. We also love the lessons and values taught by the team - a genuine commitment to nature and the environment.

I no longer feel any anxiety when booking activities for half term - GPFS meets all our needs 💚

If you’re looking for a team that are head and shoulders above the rest, and a healthy, nurturing environment for your child to thrive in, you won’t find better 🌳 🐦 💚
