About Us

Little Foxes Forest Adventures is an outdoors, nature based play service, offering a variety of Forest School style sessions for a wide range of participants. Protecting and preserving our natural environment is at the heart of everything we do.

We are based in the beautiful village of Lamberhurst, just by the Kent/East Sussex border, usually using the Common Land in the village. We can also come to you, so let us know if there is a site where you would like to get outdoors and have some fun!

Our aim is to provide a selection of sessions to suit different children and their families. Mostly we do blocks of sessions, to give participants time to build up a relationship with us and each other, although we also offer special sessions during school holidays and one-off family fun days and parties to give everyone the chance to get involved!

What We Offer

What is Forest School?

Forest School is a child-centred inspirational learning process, that supports holistic growth through regular sessions in a natural environment, such as a woodland. It encourages play, exploration, hands-on experiences and supported risk taking. Forest School has been proved to develop learners' confidence and self-esteem.

At Little Foxes, we use the principles which underpin Forest School to shape what we do. Giving people the time to explore and immerse themselves in nature is vital for their all round development and wellbeing- this is what we aim to provide.
