Kids Survival Clubs
Please
These events will support the kids, not only through physical skills that they will learn, but mentally and internally, generating vitality at a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual level. They will be more happy, confident, empathetic and grateful for life generally! We aim to give you and the children a teaching system that will get them to think for themselves. we will be there as guides to show them the way, but in the end it's up to them to work out the mysteries of the natural world. We are a Paleolithic school looking to enhance people's lives through working with the earth around us , slowly building up an encyclopedia of knowledge about the natural world , expanding our confidence , our zest for life and inspiring us to live and dream more . We will slowly cover all the subjects of thriving in the wild, including fire, water, foraging, herbalism, archery, bows, arrows, baskets, shelter, trapping, tracking, stalking, stealth movement, camouflage, bird language amongst many other subtopics of survival. What happens at the clubs? We have been running this club since August in Frome on a Sunday every 2 weeks , with a mix of kids , home ed and schooled , in Black dog woods , just opposite the church hall , there is plenty of parking there and the forest is so magical , i cant believe what we have found there over the months . We have our own spring for water , a small lake and a huge forest to roam around in to harvest various items and materials for our Paleolithic journey . Glastonbury is in Coombe woods on a Wednesday every 2 weeks , mostly with home kids , the forest is huge and welcoming to us also, the club has only just started . We are currently on bow craft and archery at the moment, and will move onto arrows and flint knapping next . Its a curriculum style, on going drop in system , we are going through each subject of survival quite intensely so the kids don't forget them ! Each subject has many facets to it and advanced levels of engagement and knowledge. We hope your children can keep coming back for many months and years so they will hold these skills deep inside of themselves. We generally spend the first hour playing ninja / jedi / wide games , lots of running around or opposingly learning how to be very quiet , through the process of stalking and routines of invisiblitity. Then we go on a wild food walk usually , because this is a huge subject that needs to be gone over again and again. In the afternoon we get into the skills of the day with a gratitude circle either at the beginning or the end of the day or both ! We are currently running clubs in Frome and Glastonbury and we hope soon in Devon. Please mail us if you want us to come to you to set one up .

“Just to say thank you again to you and your team, Ruari has been talking about it non-stop since we left you! Elise was just great at getting him relaxed and ready to join in and the activities just sound fab! I really hope that the group continues to grow for you as it is an amazing idea and so needed!” - Veronica and Dafydd |
