Our Team

Carrie Roet

Director

Carrie trained as a Forest School Leader in 2014 inspired by the methodology and, having seen this first hand working with children and young people, the benefits of being outside. Being close to and in nature can bring a deep sense of joy and wellbeing. Outside we can learn to be in our bodies and connect with ourselves in our own time and Forest School upholds the fundamental belief that we are all individual, unique and a valuable part of a community and that applies to all ages.
