school Campovers, youth programmes & experiential visits
School Campovers.
Within our unique woodland setting we offer hosted campovers for up to 30 children and 3 staff across either 2 days (1 night) or 3 days (2 nights).
We prepare and cook all meals over the camp fire, providing full catering from lunch on day of arrival (expected at around 12pm) to lunch on day of departure (expected departure around 2:30pm).
We can tailor woodland activities to your group and these range from archery to den building, tracking, learning new knots to put up hammocks, learning methods of fire lighting, simple natural craft, fun games for camouflage and concealment and of course, creating plenty of free time for play and exploration.
In the evening(s) we offer the opportunity to be joined at the camp fire by a story teller, reconnecting with a long history of communal storytelling. Enjoyed, of course, with hot chocolate and toasted marshmallows.
This is a fun, enriching off grid experience promoting independence, team building, communication and the learning of new skills, together with the building of individual resilience and social skills outside the classroom. This unique and special trip will offer children wonderful memories for years to come.
Please note - groups will need to bring their own tents and basic camping equipment, including a roll mat and sleeping bag for each participant.
Youth Programmes.
Every group and every young person is unique. At Earthcraftuk we offer tailored programmes and experiential visits to suit you for KS3 & KS4 groups.
Whether you are looking for a long term Forest School experiential programme, or a one day visit – we would be delighted to offer your young people a unique, calm and relaxed experience within which to learn and grow.
As an accredited centre, we can offer a tailor made programme with options of entry Level, Level 1 and Level 2 qualifications from the Preparation for Life and Work programme for young people aged 14+, all delivered in the unique setting of our woodland camp.
We continue to experience high levels of engagement from a range of young people, curious to learn outdoors – in the classroom without walls.

Experiential VISITS.
Children love to play and learn in the woodland setting, though many have not yet had the opportunity. We offer tailored experiential day visits for up to 30 children KS1 - KS4.
Whether you are looking for a Stone Age day, practical crafts day, den building day – we can tailor a day for your class. The day will start when you arrive around 9am and finish when you leave around 3pm.
Please note: we expect groups to bring your own packed lunches. We will provide hot chocolate, water, squash and fresh fruit.
