Woodventurers is a local alternative  education provider in Cambridgeshire.  The Woodventurers team is a group of educators who believe that with the right education programe, all children can succeed. Our aim is to re-ignite a passion for learning through interesting, enjoyable learning experiences.  Research shows that learning in a calming natural setting allows students to thrive. Therefore, we focus on improving mental health, well-being and academic achievement through Outdoor Learning.  We use our beautiful woodland setting in Hardwick but can equally bring our work to your outdoor space. 

To maximise the success of the programme and to give best value, we dedicate time to ensuring each bespoke programme is correctly tailored to meet individual needs. Aims and objectives are planned in close collaboration with relevant professionals, the pupils and/or their family. From this core plan, Woodventurers devise the programme of learning.

During their time with us, students record successes in a personalised ‘Woodland Passport’. This may contain  a specific certificate they’ve worked towards for example ‘nature spotter’, photos or artwork. Where appropriate, certificates can be in line with individual interests and motivations. Ultimately, it is a tangible momento for the learner to keep.

We realise working outdoors can be more risky than being inside a building. However, safety is one of our highest priorities. As such, to minimise risk to the young person, staff or others, all activities and working areas are rigorously risk assessed prior to a session
