Monday AM Tots & Twigs Forest School Westonbirt Arboretum Spring 2026

Learning With Nature runs weekly Tots & Twigs Forest School sessions at Westonbirt Arboretum for pre-school children (from 2 years up to 5 years of age) and their parents/carers.

Each course runs during school term times and will focus on developing children's imagination, creativity and self-esteem whilst exploring the wonderful natural environment of the arboretum.

The Forest School helps encourage young children, and supports their parents/carers in helping them, to get back to nature with a wildlife focus, creating a sense of woodland wonder and developing their outdoor knowledge through nature-based learning sessions.

The cost of the 5-week course will be £45, or £40 if you are a Friend of Westonbirt Arboretum Member, plus Eventbrite fee. FOWA will need to present their FOWA card at the first sessions they attend.

Please no dogs to attend sessions.

All sessions are outside so please ensure you wear appropriate clothing and sensible footwear.

Each ticket for the course includes entrance into the arboretum for one parent/career attending the session with their preschool age child. You are free to explore the Arboretum for the rest of the day at your leisure if you are not already a FOWA.

The safety of visiting children is paramount and we reserve the right to alter forest school sessions to ensure your safety.

If this is not possible then we will either carry over any outstanding weeks to the next course or provide a refund for the outstanding sessions excluding the Eventbrite fee..

If you are unable to attend a session, we are not able to offer any refund.
