Would you like to be able to lead groups of children or adults in local parks or other nature spaces, but you're not quite sure what activities to do? This course is aimed at play workers, teachers, scout leaders, woodcraft leaders, rangers or anyone else who would like to learn a toolkit of activities that you can use with groups outdoors. We will spend the day playing outside so that you will understand how the activities work and how to combine them to create sessions that flow with the energy of your group. The training will take place outside, so please bring clothing suitable for the weather and a packed lunch.
This is a paid event.
