We work with education professionals to promote the use and benefits of teaching outdoors – particularly in woods and forests.
Outdoor learning can be active, challenging and enjoyable. It contributes to good health and wellbeing, and raises awareness of issues like climate change and sustainable development.
Outdoor and Woodland Learning Scotland (OWL Scotland)
OWL Scotland is dedicated to increasing the use of Scotland's outdoor environments for learning.
Forest Kindergarten
