About

A 3 DAY WOODLAND ADVENTURE PROGRAMME FOR THOSE BEGINNING THEIR HIGH SCHOOL JOURNEY IN ASHTON

Starting high school is an exciting milestone, but for many young people it can also bring worries about making new friends, fitting in, finding their way around, and coping with new challenges.

Roots & Wings has been specially designed to help young people step into Year 7 with confidence, resilience, and a sense of adventure.

Over three action-packed days in the woodland, children will take part in a range of Forest School experiences that encourage teamwork, independence, problem-solving, and self-belief. Through shared adventures and achievable challenges, participants will have the opportunity to build friendships, develop resilience, and discover strengths they can carry with them for their next adventures.

What to Expect:
🏹 Archery
🔥 Fire craft & campfire cooking
🌲 Bushcraft with tool use
🏕️ Shelter building and hammock hanging
🤝 Games & challenges
🌿 Wellbeing moments

Children will gain:
⭐New peer connections
⭐Knowledge and skills in survival
⭐Greater confidence and self-esteem
⭐Improved communication and collaboration

Our experienced Forest School and Outdoor leaders create a safe, supportive environment where children can take positive risks, try new things, and celebrate their achievements.

Who Is It For?
