Forest School Singapore was the first Forest School in Singapore in 2016.
We continued on for 8 years until 2024, where we closed the chapter.
We rested for a while
We travelled and reflected
We started to explore
Who we are…
Beneath the rustles
A spark of life
Brews from within
A little shroom
Emerges…
Forest School Singapore has been Reborn, as a local Forest School Training and Research enterprise, focusing on Educators, Parents, Practitioners, Community and Systems.
After spending the past 8 years doing Forest School sessions and camps for children, we realised a need for work to be done with the environmental and social factors around our children. Forest School Singapore, will now be driving change and impact through:
