Following the announcement of our Queen’s award in April, we are delighted to share an article written about Little Forest Folk by a journalist who visited us in May.
We’ve been bursting with excitement and now that it’s the Queen’s birthday and the official announcement day, we are absolutely delighted to finally share with you the news that Little Forest Folk has been given the royal seal of approval.
Following our being selected by Tatler as being one of the finest nurseries in the nation last month, we are now delighted to share with you an article written about Little Forest Folk by a journalist who visited us in our Wimbledon setting a few weeks ago.
Well, this weekend was the long awaited Nursery World Awards! It was a fabulous event and we were delighted to be recognised in such a large industry such as the early years to be one of the industry leaders.
What a wonderful way to finish our last days of the Summer Term in the forest! It has been a week full of facepaint, football and a celebration of all the countries and cultures in the world! With the summer holidays just around the corner, many children shared their travel plans. Combined with the excitement of the football season, this week’s theme was all about imagining holidays around the world and celebrating our Forest World Cup. 🏆🌈
What a special week we have had here in the forest. We have felt the high heats creeping back up.. but we haven’t let it dampen our spirits. Instead we put into practice all the things we have learnt about keeping cool. Hats on, shaded areas and lots and lots of water and ice play. We’ve been as cool as cucumbers!
This lovely week brought a welcome respite as we enjoyed breezy days in the sun, beneath our tarps and under the leafy canopies. We became summer explorers wearing our sun hats and favourite caps. With the familiar scent of sunscreen on our skin and sparkly fresh grass beneath our feet, this week we transformed Fulham Palace Gardens into our very own seaside escape. From imaginative play to collective discoveries, we proved that the forest, our friends and our endless imagination are all we need for the best start to the summer!
This week our children buzzed with the rhythm of dancing bees, travelling from flower to flower as they explored the wider park. Their curiosity set the pace, and what a wonderful pace it was.
Children tested their abilities in all kinds of physical challenges: running, ball play, climbing, and navigating their way under and around trees. There was a real sense of stepping out of comfort zones and challenging themselves to do a little more.
Understanding the World through hands-on experiences. We explored different occupations, and the children have truly thrown themselves into every role with curiosity, teamwork and lots of imagination. From digging up dinosaurs to solving mysteries and serving up pizzas or making coffees our camp has been as busy as the beekeepers in Spring! ☀️✨🌈🐝
Such a beautiful round up to an amazing Holiday Camp. We’ve been blessed with glorious sunny weather, the Walled Garden beginning to bloom and blossom and as usual we’ve had a great bunch of campers who have brought new energy to our Fulham camp 🏕️ Here’s some of the fun we have been up to this week:balancing between logs and crossing different sizes of planks. While the little ones used the tunnel as their secret and cosy rabbit hole home, the oldest enjoyed playing Jenga for many turns!🥚🌼🐰
We had a Rabbit tunnel consisting of two climbing frames made out of pallets and a hula-hoop with two long bunny ears. This was part of our challenging Easter obstacle course. Our little bunnies had lots of fun climbing, going down the rabbit hole through the hula-hoop and the pile of tires, balancing between logs and crossing different sizes of planks. While the little ones used the tunnel as their secret and cosy rabbit hole home, the oldest enjoyed playing Jenga for many turns!🥚🌼🐰
What a magical week full of sunshine! With temperatures higher than usual, longer days and bright mornings, we have been buzzing around the colourful and vibrant Fulham Palace Gardens. With the spring equinox around the corner, it seems that spring fairies may be hiding behind blossom trees! From lovely ladybirds visiting us daily on camp, busy honeybees and baby caterpillars hanging from the trees on their silk threads, we are embarking on a new season of adventure in the forest! 🐛🐞🐝🌸🌼🧚🌈
