The Institute of Outdoor Learning has kindly agreed to allow us to share their article on the Nature Premium campaign. The campaign started out life as an idea during a ‘let’s put our heads together to solve a problem’ meeting of the FSA board. We wanted to find ways to support both members and the wider community during the COVID crisis. The campaign has taken on a life of its own. The campaign is working to support the entire outdoor learning community, not just Forest School. Although much wider in scope than just Forest School and it has made significant progress.
FSA Book – This comprehensive and illustrative guide to setting up a Forest School is a compilation of knowledge and wisdom from some of the Forest School Association’s most experienced trainers, leaders and members
