Middlewood Nature Nursery

The advantages of exposing kids to nature in undeveloped woodland settings have now been scientifically demonstrated to improve wellbeing.
The outdoor multisensory experiences stimulate young children, and over time, it's usual to notice gains in their self-belief and confidence, as well as improvements in their passion and learning capacity, communication and problem-solving skills, and general emotional well-being.
Every Child Matters (2003) and the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum (2014) are both met by the Forest Schools curriculum, which also provides children with improved personal, social, and emotional skills that will better prepare them for starting school.
Children engage in physical activity frequently at Forest Schools Kindergarten, which improves their strength, endurance, and dexterity.
Children's emotional and mental health also improve as a result of growing in self-esteem and confidence.
Children who attend forest schools have the time, space, and independence to learn at their own speed and in their own way.
Children leave kindergarten with all the abilities they need to enjoy learning and start school, along with the resilience to learn from mistakes and the confidence to work alone or in a group.
Through hands-on learning activities and an enabling environment that encourages independence, children can successfully and meaningfully complete all sections of the Early Years Foundation Curriculum in a Forest School setting.
Studies have demonstrated that throughout their academic careers, students from Forest Schools nurseries make superior progress and outperform national averages.
Unfamiliar people can gain confidence in using woodlands and other green spaces, which can serve as the foundation for a lasting relationship with the outdoors.
