Growing Roots Forest School CIC is an outdoor learning community based in Sonning Common, South Oxfordshire. We are excited to launch our Forest School in September 2026, welcoming children, families and adults into a beautiful woodland environment.

Our sessions are designed to inspire curiosity, confidence and a lifelong connection with the natural world. Through exploration, seasonal activities and hands-on experiences, every visit is an opportunity to slow down, discover, create and grow.

At Growing Roots, everyone is welcome and valued. We believe outdoor learning should be inclusive, accessible and enriching—a place where individuals feel a true sense of belonging, build meaningful relationships and create lasting memories. Rooted in nature and guided by experience, our aim is to nurture confidence, wellbeing and resilience while fostering a community that grows together.
