School visits to Dalby Forest
Uncover the secrets of Dalby Forest with your class
Situated on the southern slopes of the North York Moors National Park, Dalby Forest offers fantastic learning opportunities for people of all ages and abilities.
A classroom with no walls
The living, breathing forest at Dalby is a versatile learning space, with room to think and space to explore.
Plan sensory exploration or wildlife and habitat spotting with younger children. Older children can see how ecosystems work, undertake field studies or explore the science behind the tree lifecycle.
Learning in a forest is also a practical way to immerse your class in a range of subjects. Spark students' imagination by delivering a lesson on any topic, using the setting as inspiration.
