Flying Sycamores Forest School

Flying Sycamores runs Forest School inspired sessions for children and adults (and those in between!).
We work in a number of woods in East London; Coppermill Fields, Walthamstow, E17 7HG and Ainslie Wood, Chingford, E4. We also run a session now at Good Shepherd Studios, E11.
Let’s get outdoors to immerse ourselves in nature, be inspired by the seasons through crafts, play, and group games. We seek the ultimate Nature Connection in beautiful local woodlands.
Our sessions follow a free flow structure inspired by the child led philosophy of the Forest School ethos; that show long term nature connection encourages a healthy body and mind. We like to sit amongst the leaves, play in the mud, swing in the trees, sing songs, make seasonal crafts, build dens, whittle and explore!
Flying Sycamores was set up by Lucy Jackson Watts in 2021 to respond to families who wanted more play time outside.
Art Forest School is run by Pippa and Lucy and runs art inspired sessions in the woods.
All the people who work with Lucy are DBS checked, first aid trained and we are fully insured and have an agreement to run sessions by Lea Valley.
