Come and spend a day or more in our newly planted woodland in Stapleford, near Tarvin, Cheshire, meeting others, learning bushcraft skills and participating in various Forest School activities.
We have increased availability due to popular demand.
We are able to take unaccompanied children from age 7.
Every school holiday we are able to host 20 children aged 7 to 12 inclusive on our 1 day, open access days. These days incorporate elements from bushcraft and forest school along with basic elements from military survivial training.
We run more advanced courses, spanning 3 days, normally Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, for frequent flyers and older children. These courses dig deeper into bushcraft and survival training and do include an element of homework for the 3rd day's cooking.
For younger children, under 7, with parents, we accommodate up to 6 families on our family days. Generally these are concurrent with open day sessions and 3 day courses with instructors leading the events in different parts of the plantation and families choosing which to engage in with the ability to move around from one to another or take self lead time should they want.

Broomheath Plantation Forest School, with bases in Tarvin, near Chester and in Northwich, Cheshire, is one of a growing number of organisations specialising in delivering Forest School in school grounds across Cheshire and the North West, or other settings like Broomheath Plantation owned and managed woodlands in Cheshire, near Tarvin and Malpas. Upon first hearing the term Forest School, many people immediately take the words at face value and conclude that we will be teaching in woodland or wooded areas. Of course this is correct, at least partially, because Forest School is an ethos or method, rather than a thing or a place, and can be delivered indoors or on flat playing fields and even playgrounds too.
