My vision...

I AM passionate about fully immersing children in all that the natural world has to offer; fostering their curiosity, resilience and connection with nature. My aim is to provide a nurturing space where ALL children can thrive.

I AM Anne-Marie and I AM Forest School!

With over nineteen years' experience working across the entire Early Years and Primary age range, I am a passionate Forest School Leader and former primary school teacher.

During lockdown 2020, I had the opportunity to witness my own toddler's remarkable growth and development from spending time in nature. This greatly inspired me to swap the classroom for the outdoors and train for the Level 3 Forest School Leader certificate.
