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.
It’s been a wetter week in the forest! We know what that means.. jumping in muddy puddles! Lots of the adventurers enjoy the wet weather as we see worms wiggling around the forest and we have ‘big ponds’ of water to splash in.
“Nee naw, Nee naw!” The sound of the loud and colourful bells from our very own fire engine made from a recycled box and our ambulance made of supermarket crates, resonated in the forest as we learnt and talked about different community helpers this week!
The week began with fire lighting practice on the field, as we run through a list of our explorers to make sure everybody has a chance to experience this one-on-one activity.
Happy Valentine’s Day lovely families! At Chiswick, we have been celebrating a day of love in the Spring sunshine together, talking about what we love and what makes our hearts sing.

It has been a pleasure to welcome many familiar faces as well as new friends to our forest this week for holiday camp. Many children have enjoyed having their older siblings on camp to share their adventures with!
As the daffodils on Wimbledon common have begun sprouting this week, we have enjoyed the warm embrace of the sun, the ability to be able to shed our jackets in the afternoon warmth, and the reappearance of some Little Forest Folk Wandsworth alumni, in the form of holiday camp children!
This week, the mornings started with ice on the ground and a little bit of fog but as soon as we were ready to play, the sun started shining through the trees and warming up the forest!
This week, a series of lengthy adventure walks have taken us on sun-soaked journeys out into the wild. On one of the loops, we went on a number hunt where children were able to practice number recognition and counting.
