A Heart Full of Gratitude: Our Wild Roots Forest School Launch Story 🌳

Updated: Nov 14, 2025

Where Do We Even Begin?


Just a few months ago, Wild Roots Wales was merely a dream. Today, thanks to you, it’s a vibrant, laughing, muddy-kneed reality!


As a new forest school in South Wales, we wanted to take a moment to say the biggest, most heartfelt THANK YOU to every single family who joined us for our two-week launch. To say we’re blown away would be an understatement!


Look What We Built Together


When we first planned our launch, we hoped a handful of families might come and share our love for the outdoors. You completely surpassed our wildest dreams!


In just two weeks, our forest school community has already grown to:


🌿 98 wonderful children who explored, created, and played their hearts out.


🌿 64 incredible families who travelled from Porthcawl, Kenfig Hill, Maesteg, Port Talbot, and Neath to be part of Wild Roots.


This amazing response shows just how much families across South Wales are craving quality outdoor education.


Making Memories, One Potion at a Time


It wasn’t just about numbers — it was about the moments.


✨ Quieter children growing in confidence.

✨ Imaginations running wild with creative clay and magical potions.

✨ Quiet pride in learning to use tools safely.

✨ The warmth of gathering around a fire.


These are the heartbeats of Wild Roots Wales, and they show the true magic of nature play and forest school learning.


The Adventure is Just Getting Started


Your support has been the fuel for our fire, and it’s burning brighter than ever!


Our Halloween Special sold out in just three hours (wow!), and we couldn’t be more excited for what’s next.


👉 The next adventure is on Sunday, September 28th.

👉 Bookings go live on Bookwhen Monday, September 1st.


Make sure you’re following us on social media and signed up to our newsletter so you don’t miss a thing!


Embracing Nature Together


At Wild Roots Wales, we believe that nature has a unique way of bringing us together. Each adventure we embark on is a chance to learn, grow, and connect.


Imagine the laughter echoing through the trees as children discover the wonders of the forest! Picture families bonding over shared experiences, creating memories that will last a lifetime.


We’re not just about outdoor education; we’re about fostering a deep connection with nature. Every twig snapped, every leaf turned, and every potion brewed is a step towards understanding the world around us.


Join Us for Future Adventures


We have so much more planned! From seasonal events to themed workshops, there’s always something exciting on the horizon.


Our goal is to create a space where everyone feels welcome. Whether you’re a seasoned adventurer or just starting your journey, there’s a place for you here.


So, what are you waiting for? Dive into the adventure with us!


Thank You


From muddy hands to full hearts, we are so grateful for each of you who helped us bring Wild Roots Wales to life. Together, we’re building something special - a community where children can thrive outdoors and families can connect with nature.


With gratitude,

Andrew and Rhys

The Wild Roots Wales Team 🌿
