Princes Mead outdoor learning

Woodland Stay & Play

Calling all little adventurers

Come and discover the magic of our woodland with your toddler this autumn at Prince’s Mead School. Set within the enchanting Gray’s Wood, on the edge of the South Downs National Park, our free Stay & Play sessions invite little adventurers aged 2 to 4 and their grown-ups to enjoy a morning of nature-filled fun and discovery.

From potion-making in the mud kitchen to crafting with leaves and twigs, your child will be immersed in imaginative and sensory-rich activities that celebrate the changing seasons. Each session includes free exploration, creative play, story time under the trees, and a chance to make new friends around the campfire.

While your little one enjoys the freedom of our Forest School, you’ll have time to connect with other parents and enjoy a hot drink in a beautiful woodland setting.
