Catching up at Lakey Lane

 
Ariel view of site
Yesterday I had the opportunity to visit the Forest School at Lakey Lane and meet up with collegues in the consortium who also trained at the same time as myself.

It's always useful to see what is happening elsewhere and share ideas which can then give you an opportunity to reflect on your own practice.

Lakey Lane delivers Forest School to two year groups one from the infant phase and one from the junior phase. They have two qualified teachers and run a programme in cycles of six weeks to give every child an opportunity to attend lessons.

The site looks fantastic and has recently benefitted from the addition of a wood shed to help with storage.

A photo record had been kept which shows many of the exciting experiences the children had been getting up to.

All the schools in the consortium have taken a slightly different approach to delivering Forest School and as we continue to share our experiences I'll try to write more here.
