WildTribe Holiday Club (5 - 11yrs)
Gorcott Hill Outdoor Education Centre
WildTribe is the perfect holiday adventure in the Forest for children aged 5 to 11 who love to have fun outdoors. If your child loves to explore nature or just loves the freedom of being outdoors, WildTribe is the perfect childcare solution for your family, running from 8.30am until 5pm, with a late …more drop off option available to suit your diary. Example activities: • Den building • Bug hunting • Wild arts and crafts • Bushcraft • Campfire cooking • Wildlife spotting • Soft Archery • Outdoor games and sports Please note: Bookings close 4 days before each session so book early to avoid disappointment. The staff leading sessions are experienced teachers and outdoor educators with full DBS clearance and qualified in paediatric first aid. We are also specialists in supporting children with a range of needs including Autism and ADHD and we encourage families to let us know as much as they can about the needs of their children so we can ensure they are safe and happy in the Forest. Many of our children come back to the Forest again and again so form lasting friendships. We run the sessions in 2 groups, one for younger children aged 5-7 and one for older children aged 7-11. The staff leading each group plan age appropriate activities and differentiate for the different skills and abilities of older and younger children. less
