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.
‘Wouldn’t we all secretly like to be Little Forest Folk?' We are incredibly excited and proud to be included once again in the prestigious annual Tatler Nurseries Guide.
This week has seen the colours of our surroundings change dramatically with the green leaves of our enormous Plane Tree suddenly turning into glorious oranges, reds and browns carpeting the path to our forest area.
Back in base camp this week and the children have been busy building ships, climbing trees, making rope courses and taking long adventure walks through our beautiful forest.
It has been another beautiful Autumnal week in the forest where the children have been observing the magical seasonal colours that are transforming the Palace gardens.
With the grassland area under our majestic plane tree in need of some respite, the much loved swings came down, the pallet board obstacle course was no more and the boundary lines retreated back to the snack area but with this, the back of the forest opened for exploration and adventures.
What a glorious week in the forest we’ve had. The weather has been beautiful and so the meadow has been our home base this week, with so much to explore and discover.
This week in the forest the children have been fully engaged in some wonderfully creative role-play, superhuman climbing and balancing as well as a range of different artistic activities.
The mornings are getting frostier and the days colder, but on with some more layers and off we go into the forest to have fun! This week, our Little Forest Folk-ers have kept warm by the fire and enjoyed making new friends as we welcomed our holiday campers for half term.
This Autumn we seem to have had the perfect weather to encourage the growth of wild mushrooms, as they have been popping up all over our forests, both in Kew Gardens and Chiswick House and Gardens!
It has been an extra special week at Fulham, as we have just celebrated our 3rd Birthday and in true Little Forest Folk style, James presented us with the most amazing cake designed to look just like our forest.
The children’s imagination encircled the forest this week and the activity that filled our forest with laughter and joy, was the one that didn’t require any resources, just the natural set up of the woods.
