What some recent clients say about their experience with Rustic Roots Forest School
Anna and Sharon have been an asset to our school this academic year. They have led the children in engaging and exciting outdoor activities each week. Their approach is very child-centred, and they take the needs of each individual child into account to ensure a fully inclusive offer. They have developed the Forest School area into an inviting space, rich with opportunities for play and communication, enabling the children to develop cooperation and social skills.
We have been lucky enough to have Anna and Sharon provide the children at TLA an amazing opportunity to participate in weekly Forest School sessions. These sessions have not only been an opportunity for the children to learn in a different environment, but also an opportunity to extend children’s engagement, communication skills and resilience during these sessions. The children are always excited for their sessions and come back actively wanting to articulate skills they have learnt each week. We can’t thank Anna and Sharon enough for providing our school with this curriculum enriching experience.

I am a qualified Forest school teacher and have been inspired by the natural world around me from a very young age.
My father was a horticulturalist, so I grew up on plant nurseries and have always been fascinated by the beauty of nature.
I have worked with children and young adults with additional needs in schools/colleges and other settings for over 18 years and feel passionate about providing a more child led, practical based outdoor learning for so many that need a different approach.
My name is Sharon and I have worked with children and people with additional needs for over 20 years, I love combining my passion for nature and working with people of all ages and aim to inspire a passion and respect for nature through Forest School.
