Below is framework of the session. The timings and activities are only a guide.
0900 We meet at the entrance to the wood. You will have parked and walked up the track. We then enter the wood together.
0900 - 0920 Time as a group. Starting with a drink and snack. Fun introductions and general safety talk. Stride out around our part of woodland.
0920 - 1100 Activity time slot one. Guided simple tool work. Then opportunities to build a den, hunt for mini beasts, building a swing or relax in a hammock. Access to snacks and drinks is ongoing through this part of the day.
1100 - 1115 An optional pause - this is an opportunity for us come back together for a bit of reflection of what we have done ‘so far'.’
1115-1300 Activity time slot two. Fire. Building a fire for cooking lunch. Learning how to use a flint and steel. Potential to build your own small fires. Learn to saw safely and use a wider range of tools.
1300-1345 Lunch together. Food from the fire and your packed lunch. Activity time slot three. What is left that you would like to do? Time to finish your own projects.
1345 Group reflections and mindfulness activity.
We will all leave the wood at 1400. PLEASE BE AWARE it may well be 1415/1420 before you get back to your car. Legs maybe tired and curiosity levels high. Both can result in more of a dawdle than a fast paced return.
