FSA Conference Workshop- the quest for the child led session @ Condover Hall, Shrewsbury
Oct 23 @ 18:00 – Oct 25 @ 14:30
FSA Conference Workshop- the quest for the child led session @ Condover Hall, Shrewsbury | United Kingdom

 The Forest School Association National Conference with a host of brilliant workshops and keynote speakers.

Lily’s workshop will be ‘The quest for the child led session’ – An adventurous quest into giving up the role of leader to the children and young people you work with. This workshop is based on some work that Lily has been doing with groups that incorporates rites of passage and transitions, the hero’s journey, group agreements, quests and missions, collective decision making, with a dollop of mucking about in the woods and organised chaos. Through this we will explore how to manage our role as a non leader both emotionally, practically and dynamically. 

It is not possible to book this workshop separately it will only be available as part of the conference package.
