The Forest School at Okehampton

The Outdoors Group are proud to have opened Okehampton’s first Forest School setting in a beautiful semi ancient woodland, just a short walk from the town centre.

We are delighted to offer a range of fun groups and activities for the local community, including our Tree Tots Toddler Groups for parents and little ones, Home Education groups for children aged 6 and up and Holiday Clubs for school age children in the school holidays. We want to get as many children as possible into the woods to play, explore, discover and learn.
