Meet the Rangers sessions

Meet the Rangers involves learning and discovery that’s in tune with nature and the great outdoors. Participants will take part in fun outdoor activities in our local parks and woodland.

Open to children primarily aged five to ten, Meet the Rangers Sessions aim to promote new skills, confidence, self-esteem and team building and these sessions are being run free of charge.

The woodland and outdoor environment is central to the activities which include looking at the changing seasons and the smells, textures and sounds of nature.

Our Park Rangers are trained in first aid and have attained a Level Three Forest Schools leader course.

Available sessions

From the 28 July 2026 until 28 August 2026 there will be Meet the Ranger Sessions every week:

At Meet the Rangers Sessions, children will get to build habitats and shelters, create their own art pieces using materials around the park, go bird watching, learn circus skills, and more over the sessions taking place through school holidays.

Meet the Ranger sessions are free and no booking is required. All children must be accompanied by an adult.
