At Inside Out, we will work with your children to develop their confidence and self-esteem through hands on experiences in our woodlands. This includes offering opportunities for children to take supported and appropriate risks. We aim to foster resilience to build independent and creative learners. Our sessions are run by a qualified Level 3 practitioner and trained assistants.
We can offer bespoke packages/themes including campfire cooking, bushcraft, stories, nature art, clay work, crafts, games, and much more.
You and your little ones will spend one-and-a-half hours in the woods, enjoying crafts, stories, and play, with a real campfire for toasting marshmallows!
Snacks, drinks, marshmallows, and a wide variety of crafts that your child will take home each week.
Please advise us beforehand if you are vegan or have any dietary requirements and we will do our best to cater for you and your family.
Our camps take place in our woods in Leek & Glossop.

Sessions must be booked in blocks for each half term. These sessions can NOT be carried over onto the next term. You can attend as many sessions as you have purchased within that half term time frame.
Refunds are not available, but you can still transfer your bookings to another date, as long as you transfer up to 3 days before the event that you originally book on to.
If it is 3 or less days until your original booking, then unfortunately it is too short notice to transfer. We feel that we keep our prices low in comparison to other Forest School companies who charge double and more. We also allow you to transfer your booking if you can’t make a session that week. The admin of refunding bookings would mean we would have to raise our prices in future.
Our instructors are Forest School trained, have fully enhanced DBS checks, are outdoor first aid trained with an emphasis on child first aid, and are qualified in food safety and catering. All our activities are risk assessed.
