Our vision for Greenstone
We aim to create an inclusive community where by adopting a forest school approach, pupils will flourish and achieve through a traditional education that also encompasses beyond-the-classroom experiences.
The forest school approach is known for its numerous benefits:
- Promoting Wellbeing: By immersing children in nature, we enhance their physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
- Building Resilience: Outdoor learning fosters resilience and independence, essential qualities for lifelong success.
- Enriching Experiences: Through hands-on learning, children connect with nature, local history, and the broader community.
- Environmental Awareness: Sustainability and heritage preservation will be promoted as will an appreciation for the natural world
