Who we are

Wild Explorers is a predominantly outdoor-based Ofsted registered forest school nursery in Poynton.

We welcome children aged 2* – 5 in our unique outdoor setting
(*younger children will be considered if confident walkers)

15 and 30-hour funding available*
(*please see our fee structure for full details on charges)

We aim to provide the physical and emotional space for children to develop and thrive.

Discover

When you take time to explore nature with a child, you will discover that their natural curiosity will lead you to what really interests them. As their genuine interests grow, you can encourage them to research more by touching, feeling, smelling, crunching and splashing!

Learn

Outdoor learning takes education out of the classroom and into the natural environment, using it as a unique tool to acquire knowledge and develop skills. Our forest school is a ‘classroom without walls’; it allows child-led learning, supported risk-taking, exploration and play.

Grow

Forest schooling and outdoor learning is an ethos that promotes creativity, confidence, self-esteem and independence. It is not a one-off day in the woods, it is a series of long-term sessions in a unique setting that builds on the needs and developments of the children.
