Forest School and outdoor workshops for any age and ability!
________________________________________
How it started:

'Wild Things!' was set up by Abigail (Abbie) Jebson in December 2015. A

bbie is a qualified Primary School Teacher with five years of teaching experience in various schools across South Wales. She is a qualified Level 3 Forest School Lead Practitioner (Agored Cymru certified) and has a First Aid certificate in Outdoor Paediatrics. Further to this, Abbie is also a registered Forest School Leader with 'Forest School Wales' and holds a BSc in Zoology from Cardiff University. After teaching full-time, Abbie wanted to pursue her passion for encouraging outdoor experience and education in childhood development. Abbie has a taught a range of Forest School Workshops in the past and ran a number of successful summer holiday workshops (2014) in Penllergare Valley Woods, Swansea. In December 2015 she took the leap from full-time teaching to set up this company, to offer workshops and outdoor experiences to children of all ages; from toddlers to the more 'mature' children among us!

Just a quick note to say Wild Things is currently not running, due to a change in employment. We hope that we can run some workshops in the near future and will update our social media when this happens. Many thanks for your continued support.

Happy New Year!

So it’s been very quiet on the Wild Things front recently as I’ve recently started working for the St Madoc Centre in Llanmadoc, Gower as Education Ranger.

The centre aims to provide ‘time and space for exploration and growth’ and we are able to offer Forest School parties, school residentials, workshops, weddings, activity days and more! The centre has an on-site bunk house and can offer catered options for your stays. If you’re interested in a Forest School party or workshop please contact me at my work address: [email protected]

In the meantime check out the website www.stmadoc.co.uk and give the page a ‘like’ at www.facebook.com/stmadoc

Many thanks,
Abbie
