Our mission has always been to connect with every form of outdoor learning, to celebrate its inclusive nature, and to showcase high‑quality Forest School and related practice to the wider public.
Hosted at Walesby Forest Outdoor Centre
The inaugural Forest School Show will take place in 2026 at the Walesby Forest Outdoor Centre near Newark. This fantastic venue is enjoyed year‑round by Scouts, Guides, community groups, and schools, and is home to a resident Forest School for younger children. More information about the venue is available at www.walesbyforest.org.uk
In Partnership with the FSA National Conference
We are delighted to welcome the Forest School Association’s National Conference, which will run alongside the Forest School Show. While Show visitors will not have access to the full conference, we will be sharing selected demonstrations, workshop experiences, and keynote speakers. Find out more about the FSA National Conference at www.forestschoolassociation.org.
