Forest School Holiday Club
We had such an amazing time in May bank holiday. We particularly enjoyed the homemade cinnamon toffee apple slices, marshmallows and hot chocolate.
Our next sessions are Friday 1st August and
Friday 29th August
Sessions are held at The Tynings Primary School, Staplehill, BS16 4SG.
Each session is £30, 9am-3pm with free snacks and drinks, please bring your own packed lunch. Dress appropriately for the weather (E.G water proof clothing, wellies, several layers of clothing, sun hat, sun-cream, sun glasses) as we will be outside all day.
Please apply sun cream before the session.
We can’t wait to see you there
