As the Forest School is an outdoor ‘classroom’ wind can be a dangerous element due to potential falling branches. Our Weather Policy states: if strong winds (measuring over 5 on the Beaufort scale or above 30-38kph) or thunder and lightning, the session will not take place in the woodland other options will be considered. During high winds children / families will be taken to the polytunnel area.
