Forest school clothing

Children enjoy themselves much more at Forest School if they are comfortably dressed for the
conditions. Please bear in mind that they are particularly vulnerable to cold hands, feet and heads
and that it is much easier to remove a layer if they get hot than to warm them up if they are cold.

As with other items of uniform, all clothes for Forest School should be name-‐-‐-‐marked.

Winter clothing

Footwear

Walking boots or snow boots are the warmest option. However, Wellington boots will keep their feet
reasonably warm if the boots are not too small (please check) with room inside to wear at least two
pairs of socks. A fleecy welly sock is a good option.

Little hands need gloves – and warm, waterproof ones are best. Wet gloves are very cold to wear.
Young children are less likely to lose them if they are attached to a piece of elastic or string, which
can be threaded through their coat sleeves. Please encourage your children to keep their gloves dry if
they are not waterproof.

Coat

This should be both warm and waterproof.

Layers

Children should have three layers of clothing between their body and their coat. At least one layer
should be of fleecy material as this traps pockets of air, which warm up and insulate the child from
the cold.

Legwear

Two warm layers under waterproof leggings work best. Jeans are very cold and get heavy and
uncomfortable when wet – jogging bottoms or corduroy trousers are better options. We recommend
ski or thermal underwear under weatherproof trousers in very cold conditions.

Hat

A comfortable, lined hat is essential to keep out the wind – preferably attached with a string so that
your child does not have to keep putting it into a pocket.

Summer clothing

We recommend layers of light clothing that fully cover arms and legs: shorts and short-‐-‐-‐sleeved tee-‐-‐-‐
shirts are not suitable as there are spiky plants and stinging nettles in the woods. If the children
become too hot, they can easily remove a layer and put it back on later.

Coat

Children will need a light, waterproof jacket.
Footwear

Trainers or walking boots/shoes and socks that cover the ankles are important to protect against
nettles and thistles. Wellington boots are not recommended, as they are very uncomfortable when
the weather is warm.

On particularly sunny days, a sun hat with a brim or flaps that protect the face and the back of the
neck is a good idea. Our wood is fairly shady but there are open areas that the children can explore. You
may also like to apply all-‐-‐-‐day sun cream on sunny days before your child comes to school.
