School visits to Haldon Forest Park
Uncover the secrets of Haldon Forest Park with your class
Haldon Forest Park, nestled in 3,500 acres of woodland, is just 15 minutes from Exeter and is easily accessible by car or private coach. It offers fantastic learning opportunities for people of all ages and abilities, including the opportunity to become a ranger for the day with our new Ranger in a Bag activity.
A classroom with no walls
The living, breathing forest is a versatile learning space, with room to think and space to explore. 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.
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.
Our free downloadable resources and lesson plans are available to help you plan your next trip.
