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.
Come and join other Forest School practitioners to share practice, chat over what’s going on in the world of Forest School, get up to date on latest developments and revisit and extend your own skills.
We’ll get a fire lit, a kettle over it, some light refreshments cooked over the fire and there will be a selection of tools and a nice woodland to hang out in. Jenny will fire up the pizza oven for us so bring your own toppings.
We will be exploring the potential to set up a network for practitioners in Cumbria.
For more information and to help us plan for numbers contact Lily to let us know you are coming.
