About Brigit's Garden | Summer Camps
Brigit’s Garden is looking forward to a summer of woodland adventures with forest school inspired summer camps.
The camps will combine the beauty of Brigit’s Garden with the adventures, inspiration and freedom of nature-based play. Camps will have a variety of natural crafts, activities and games.
Fun with Nature 5 – 7 year olds
This camp will include nature crafts (clay, making inks, nature flags), a chill-out area with hammocks, tree swings and slacklines, the ever-so-popular mud kitchen, nature-based stories and songs and of course, child-led free play.
Wilderness Survival Skills 8 – 12 Year olds
This camp will provide opportunities for children to enhance their survival skills, with tool use, animal tracking, fire building, flora and fauna recognition, foraging and cooking of wild plants, shelter and den building, knot tying and rope swing making.
Each camp has a maximum of 16 children and is run by fully qualified leaders with years of experience bringing children into nature.
Price
For the 5 day camp, it costs €130.00. A 10% discount applies to those with valid family membership at Brigit's Garden.
What is Forest School?
Forest School is a way of working with children in a woodland environment, which provides a positive, natural, multi-sensory learning experience to develop physically, emotionally, socially and forming an appreciation and respect for the environment.
Sessions are child-led and child-initiated and aim to allow the child to follow their own interests and develop at their own pace.
Forest school provides a safe place for children to take age appropriate risks, such as tree climbing and tool use that help to enhance confidence and self-esteem under supervision of qualified leaders.
