CM CLub: Just been on a fabulous course (for a change) but I'm not sure how I will impliment it

[KatyMac]

It was Forest School Skills

& it was all about risk taking and being outside and I loved it

What is Forest School skills then Katy?

I've never heard of it

here

& here

I have another whole day tomorrow

8hrs course plus 3.5 hrs travel

So I'm off to bed

Up early and ready to leave (well in 20 mins)

SO looking forward to it

I've heard about this, looks like lots of fun.
Similar to what i do with my girls already.
Go into the woods, tell them what trees are there, what to avoid, how to make a den and cook some bacon on a camp fire.
Reminds me of long summer days in the woods as a child, used to spend all summer making dens and cooking.
Would not do that today

This is letting children do it safely in a controlled environment - re introducing risk so that children can develope a sense of danger/safety
