These skills are utilised when they leave college and the transition into finding chosen careers . The education team also create experiences in the natural world as they almost complete their John Muir bronze award.

Today we recieved some wonderful feedback from the children of Great Yarmouth Primary school written in their thank you cards following a week's residential.
" Thank you for a residential and for making me feel welcome. I particularly enjoyed learning about the different plants and i can eat stinging nettles"

"I particularly enjoyed exploring the forest in the dark looking for the letters"

This week we were visited by Cocholm School for weeks residential funded by The Ernest Cook Trust as part of the Owl collaboration. Where the children and teachers enjoyed exploring and connecting to nature through earth walks, woodland exploration and of course meeting their own personal challenges.
Can you guess the textures of the boxes?

It was great to have the Raise crew here over the weekend. Highlights were definitely Robot Wars and the Gunge tank!

The Ringsfield Hall Trust is looking for new trustees to help drive our work with children, nature and the church community. If you have a background in Education, Conservation or supporting Christian youth, and can give a couple of hours a week or month we would love to hear from you!

Ideally we'd like to hear from people with experience in management, hr and finance but you may bring other skills which would be equally valuable.

The sun shone upon the families as they attended the SEND Open Day. A chance for the children and parents alike to play freely around the grounds. Enjoying theatre land, foraged tea party, leaf printing, tie dye, hammocks and stories... and so much more...
