Langthorne Park Forest School Drop Off Day

Child-led fun in Langthorne Park's Forest School area. Climb a tree, whittle a sword, cook a snack on the campfire with The Hive. Monday 26th October 2026 Come and join us for Forest School fun in a newly refurbished woodland area in Langthorne Park. This session has been part funded by the National Lottery Community Fund to improve access to green spaces in Leytonstone, particularly the Cathall and Cann Hall wards. Families from these areas or who go to school locally are specifically invited to attend. Forest School is an inspirational process that offers children, young people and adults regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence and self-esteem, through hands-on learning experiences in a local woodland environment. Forest Schools help children develop holistically, by providing opportunities for child led play, discovery, and supported risk taking through activities like tree climbing, fire lighting and tool use. For more information on Forest School, what your child might get up to and what they will need please see our Parents and Carers Guide. We also have a guide for neurodivergent children to help them preplan their day and know what to expect. If you would like this please email [email protected]. Come join us, bright eyed and bushy tailed for fun and adventure in Langthorne Park. Session suitable for ages 5 to 11. Sessions last from 10am to 2pm. £20 per child per session (this includes eventbrite booking fees). We are able to offer a few tickets per day at a 50% discount for families local to the park who are eligible for free school meals, please email [email protected] to find out more. Each child will need a nut-free packed lunch. We will always provide a snack on the fire but children can also bring their own additional snack (anything that can be stuck on a stick works!)
