OTHER BITS
WHAT TO WEAR
It can get quite cold in the shade of the trees so layers are always advisable. We recommend long sleeves and trousers even in the warmer months as they help protect against the natural environment. Insect repellent is always advisable to guard against the pesky bugs sometimes found outside, and sunscreen for the days when the sun is shining. In the colder weather, waterproofs, wellies, waterproof gloves and a hat are a must. They are also sometimes needed in the summer months so please keep them to hand.
WHAT TO BRING
• Small ruck sack
• Water bottle
• Small towel for drying hands
• Sunscreen
• Hand gel
​
BUGGIES & BABIES
The site is accessible to buggies, however, families may prefer to use baby slings for little ones.
WEATHER
We love exploring, whatever the weather! The only time we cancel a Forest School session is during high winds or when there is a risk of thunder and lightning. We rarely need to cancel a class but if we do, we will offer an alternative session. Refunds are not given in the event of an adverse weather closure.
TOILETS
We have a composting loo on site.
PARKING
There is parking on site. Trees & Tribe staff will be on hand to assist you with parking.
CANCELLATION
If you can’t make your session then we will do all we can to swap your date/time.
