Our Forest School Holiday Clubs
Our popular Ofsted registered holiday club runs at Whistlewood Common near Melbourne in the beautiful South Derbyshire countryside. Aimed at children of school age (5-11) our sessions run on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays throughout the school holidays.
We are also offering selected dates at Elvaston Castle near Derby.
Led by qualified Forest School leaders our holiday clubs provide lots of fun to keep children entertained during school holidays. Activities include shelter building, pond dipping, bug hunting, nature crafts, fire-lighting and much more. Sessions are planned to be child led so we often find ourselves doing something unexpected! We offer two session times to suit the needs of families which are either 9am - 3pm at a cost of £35 per child or 8.30am - 4pm at £46.50. See below for details of our upcoming sessions.

Extended hours - Please book your place for the core hours (9am - 3pm) on the website first and then contact us to add the extended hours (8,30am - 4pm). We advise doing this immediately as we will staff according to the number of children booked at the beginning and end of the day and can't offer additional hours at the last minute.
Cancellation Policy - We regret that we are unable to offer refunds after a place has been booked although we will endeavour to offer an alternative date within the same block subject to availability.
