New Forest School Nursery to open in Stoke Mandeville this autumn
"We want families to feel that Little Ferns Forest School is more than just a nursery”
Families across Buckinghamshire will soon have the opportunity to experience a unique outdoor early years setting as Little Ferns Forest School prepares to open its doors in Stoke Mandeville this autumn.
Located at Layby Farm Business Park on Old Risborough Road, Little Ferns Forest School will provide full-day childcare for children aged six months to five years, offering an innovative nature-based approach to early education.
The new nursery has been designed to immerse children in the natural world, with outdoor learning at the heart of every day. The setting features three dedicated yurts for different age groups, woodland learning spaces, a fire circle, den-building areas and opportunities for children to explore, create and learn through hands-on experiences in nature.
As the sister nursery to the well-established Little Ferns nursery in Wendover, the new setting builds upon a trusted childcare provision while offering a specialist forest school environment where children can spend their days outdoors in all seasons.
Children attending Little Ferns Forest School will benefit from a curriculum inspired by Montessori principles and forest school practice, encouraging curiosity, creativity, independence and resilience through meaningful outdoor experiences. ‘
"We want families to feel that Little Ferns Forest School is more than just a nursery. It is a place where children can connect with nature, build lasting friendships and develop a genuine love of learning that will stay with them throughout their lives."
