Following the announcement of our Queen’s award in April, we are delighted to share an article written about Little Forest Folk by a journalist who visited us in May.
We’ve been bursting with excitement and now that it’s the Queen’s birthday and the official announcement day, we are absolutely delighted to finally share with you the news that Little Forest Folk has been given the royal seal of approval.
Following our being selected by Tatler as being one of the finest nurseries in the nation last month, we are now delighted to share with you an article written about Little Forest Folk by a journalist who visited us in our Wimbledon setting a few weeks ago.
Well, this weekend was the long awaited Nursery World Awards! It was a fabulous event and we were delighted to be recognised in such a large industry such as the early years to be one of the industry leaders.
Another brilliant week at Wimbledon! We have had a mixture of new and older children coming as holiday campers, and it means it’s a great excuse for our current children to show off their amazing site. It is so lovely to see the pride they take in our space and how much our new children love to explore it.
Hello everyone! Where is our heatwave? After all the reports of global warming and extreme heat in the rest of Europe, Fulham has felt like Autumn already. On Wednesday we braved the torrential rain, sheltering at times in our ‘Tiger Tent’ for stories and songs. Although the children in our ever-popular mud kitchen enjoyed the extra water to create their potions and pies.
Mixed weather in the forest has given us the opportunity to enjoy a range of different activities. As we have a range of ages this week, we have had creative and imaginative ideas inspiring child-led activities! From pond making, pirate adventures, self-portraits and building electric hammers. We have not been short of ideas!
It's been a transformative week at Little Forest Folk Wandsworth. Starting out within the tranquil normality of Paradise, it was a delight to have a new intake of holiday campers for the summer. Both campers and full-timers have had excellent fun playing with one another. The clay was a very popular choice at Paradise, with many mouldings made; towering castles; sludgy snails and wiggly worms. We also had plenty of time to indulge in some wondrous stories and run around the little labyrinth of plants as the children ran and chased one another.
Swings and Barbecues. This week in the forest has been busy, filled with lots of fun and games! We have welcomed the first week of holiday campers to start the summer and it has been so lovely to see some familiar faces as well as some new faces! It has been wonderful to see all children enjoy being in the forest whether this has been to return or for their first time.
As we reach the end of this school year and bid farewell to the summer term, emotions run high at Little Forest Folk. This week has been particularly emotional as we say goodbye to some of our dear friends who are moving on to big school. We will cherish the memories we've created together and carry the joy of their laughter with us always.
We would like to start by saying how incredibly well our graduation ceremony went at the beginning of this week. It’s that time of year where we begin to say goodbye to all our children in Fulham that are leaving us. The children that are leaving received their certificate and graduation stone and all the educators here in Fulham couldn’t feel prouder of how grown up, well developed and school-ready these little ones are - you have all done us proud!
Hello, everyone! Oh how time flies! Can you believe it’s the end of this term already? This time of the year is always bittersweet – saying goodbye to our friends who are moving up to their new school, but also celebrating the wonderful year we have had together and getting excited for new adventures in their big schools!
