Volunteer Forest School Assistant

With Nature Forest School

Near to Chislet, Canterbury. This is a rural location so applicant will need a form of transport to attend. There are no public transport links directly to the site. 

With Nature is an outdoor Forest School setting that operates in all weather based near Chislet, Canterbury. Sessions facilitate children's curiosity, creativity and exploration through child led play. To find out more about Forest School, please visit the Forest School Association's website.  

I work with under 5s and their parents, and primary school aged home educated children and their parents. Support during sessions includes welcoming attendees, supporting the Forest School Leader during the session, and helping with set up and take down. The hours needed are 8:30/9am-3pm, but this can be discussed. This is for regular Mondays during school term time. 

If you are an outdoor loving person who is keen to learn new crafting skills using natural materials (or is already experienced), and you would like to gain or extend experience working with families in a natural setting then please get in contact. 

You will be required to hold an Enhanced DBS and complete Safeguarding training as this role requires you to work with children and complete Safeguarding training (this is something With Nature can arrange for you).
