Our theme for the weekend is ‘Flourishing in the Woods’. We hope to use this opportunity to gather in community with each other and with nature to deepen our awareness of the powerfulness of the Forest School approach to making our world a better place for all sentient beings. We are delighted to collaborate with our sister community in the north of Ireland, the Northern Ireland Forest School Association. We extend a special welcome to new members and to those of you joining us for the first time. Particular thanks to Marian Dempsey and to Sarah Whelan, local Forest School practitioners who first suggested that IFSA come to Tanagh.
