Valencia Forest School is a British-inspired, Scandinavian-inspired environmental education project. Our methodology focuses on self-directed learning and personal and emotional development through play, creativity and multi-sensory experiences in nature.
Our Play School for children ages 3 to 6 is a fantastic alternative to schooling in the non-compulsory stage of early childhood education. This is a bilingual English/Spanish respectful outdoor education program in which we work on the early years British curriculum (EYFS) through the Forest School methodology as described by the UK Forest School Association. At the Play School we also welcome worldschoolers from the international community.
Our weekend Forest School, after school clubs, summer school and other holiday programs offer your little one the opportunity to develop their critical and creative thinking according to their own interests through play in a respectful, relaxed and fun outdoor environment.
If you are a school, you will be interested to know that our Forest School day trips and programs for preschool, primary and secondary school are unique experiences that combine the learning of English with the development of personal and emotional skills such as empathy and resilience. All this in very engaging forest school sessions in which experimentation through play is the protagonist.
Valencia Forest School is the first in Spain to provide official British training to obtain the Level 3 Certificate for Forest School Leaders. If what you are interested in is understanding the methodology better to be able to apply some of its aspects in your daily life, you can also take the Level 1 Introduction to the Forest School methodology course.
