Venue
Car park of Caterham School Pre-Prep
Address
Car park of Caterham School Pre-Prep, Caterham Prep Harestone Valley Road Caterham Surrey, CR3 6YB, United Kingdom

The taster session will be on Saturday, 20th April at 3pm. We are meeting in the car park of Caterham School Pre-Prep and walking over to their outdoor learning & woodland area together.

This will be a "gently spiritual" encounter with the natural world, encouraging us, whatever age we are, to play and find joy and peace in nature.

The theme for this session is friendship - that is, friendship with God and nature and each other. Activities will include foraging, bushcraft, nature-based craft, a time of reflection, singing & outdoor prayer. It will be co-led by a Forest School Level 3 Leader but it will be intergenerational and suitable for all ages.

Please bring: bottled water, any medications you may need, and weather-appropriate clothing (long,waterproof trousers, long-sleeved tops, sun cream, sun hat and glasses and/or waterproof coat, woolly hat, gloves, wellies depending on the weather).
Please note that often activities such as scavenging, mud-play and water-based activities can result in mucky clothing - so don't wear your best white suit !

Do let us know if you plan to come (use the Contact form) so that we can ensure we have enough resources for all.
