Conservation
Enriching our learners with knowledge of the environment is a very important part of what we have to offer at Back2Basics
One of the 6 principles of Forest school provision is the need to highlight and promote environmental awareness and to encourage sustainability when out and about in the natural world. the first thing we teach, and which we believe to be of the upmost importance is the need to respect the environment in which we live.
We use simple techniques through discussion in a variety of ways to promote respect, such as simple task like turning of light switches when at home, recycling and walking to school whenever possible.
Conservation plays a major part in our woodlands. The importance of replacing old trees with new is vital to our future, however discussing the ‘hows’ and ‘whys’ is where the knowledge becomes really embedded.
Back2Basics have developed concise Woodland Management Plans to maintain and protect Moorgrove Forest and additional information can be provided on request.
