Hi there, It is there for each person to make their mind up, but Forest Schools is not like other outdoor learning/skills provisons as ultimatly it is not about those things, they are a means to an end and there is a lot of work done on indepth personal, social and emotional developement...

hi there, I saw your message regarding Ray`s programme and I would like to ask if you ever take people out tracking with wolf and bear. I am a tracker from the United Kingdom and trying to set up opporuntities to learn from local trackers in different countries. I am very interested in Canada...

One of the main reasons I do the job I do is that I honestly believe the most potent form of environmental sustainability is to provide the next generation with opportunities to feel the value in looking after nature for themselves. You can tell them sure, but allow them to have an honest and...

miss type, meant to put 400, why cant i edit my own post??

I`m starting to put a little aside each month towards getting an air rifle and I am in South Wales the first week of September. I`ll have about 300 saved by then if you havent sold the package and getting desperate to sell for whatever reason. Although you`ll get a buyer for much more I`m...

I travel a lot and its a nice way to keep in touch with friends and at a glace keep up with what they are up to. I thought I would try something else with it so I have made a group called Staffordshire Bushcraft, which, amazingly, is for those in and around Staffordshire who are into Bushcraft...

John and Val are great, I used to see them a few times a year until I changed jobs. I was looking back over some pics with John Knapping the other day and it inspired me to go out and do some more with the flint I have stacked up in the garden. I defy anyone to make gravel as well as me :-)

Indeed, I had a Goldfinch only yesturday enjoying some Teasel seed.

I have really gotten into this recently (mainly through actually having time to do anything to my garden) At the minute I have crab apple, cherry, blackthorn and pear trees growing alongside quite a few sallow which litter garden. Allotment wise I am growing as a start this year swiss...

Maddave I think its great that there has been a positive response, but like Woodsmoke says, its been done for decades by Rangers, either with Forest Schools, Bushcraft or other outdoor provision.

Those peoms are lovely, but I can never remember poems in genreal (a bit of Tennyson and that is about it). I have spent a few years gathering, seasoning and then buring wood of as many different types as possible, repeatidly, running comparrisons with other species to really get a feel as to...

Robin, I could email privately but I think it is needed to be said in a public forum. Congratulations to you and the rest of the Committee for what you have achieved in such a short space of time. Paul

Fantastic, this sort of thing is on my looooong list of to do`s and seeing seeing this bumps it up a few places:-)

Basically, the end.

At that temprature the timber grows much more slowly and denser, so usually a longer haft is useful to allow for more of a mechanical aid in chopping down a tree, but this also translates in splitting wood (not exlusivly, but it is an aid none the less). Following on then, a sharp edge is even...

I used to be a Ranger of Beacon Hill and was invovled in setting that event up. It has grown year on year and is fantastic. I will be back there as someone demonstrating this year. Look forward to seeing some of you.

thanks for that :-)
