Home Education Days
Back for 2025; our Home Education and SEN workshop activities!
Join our Education Team for a brilliant day of learning through experience, with educational activities designed for home-educated children from 5-15 years.
These fun and educational days will run monthly through term time, and are bookable though our website, by following the link below.
You asked... we listened.
To ensure we're teaching to the correct level, we're splitting the age groups, so we can concentrate on delivering the best quality educational experience.
Please choose a topic based on the age of the attendee - across the different sessions we offer.
Have more than one child, spanning different age groups?
Don't panic! Siblings ARE able to attend the same session - choose the one that works best for you.
Drop us an email to let us know - info@monkey-forest.com

Get involved in our workshop activities...
...which are based in either our Tipi or classroom, then enjoy a guided walk through the forest with your group leader- where you will put your learning into action- while visiting the monkeys in the forest.
Choose the workshop best for you- either our Home education workshops, or SEN friendly workshops; follow the links below to learn more about what each day entails, and choose the activity you’d like to sign up to.
