Forest school day is a social enterprise, set up as a public limited company by guarantee. It’s a mission to establish a new annual celebration day for Forest School. One that connects people to nature and promotes forest school best practice.
Forest School Day is a playful, inclusive and joyful idea.
It was an idea that would not go away. Katey Hügi, founder of Forest School Day, a Forest School leader asked: “Why does Forest School not have a celebration day?” Katey with the help of Jon Cree and Jo Phillips have created Forest School Day as a social enterprise, and are dedicated to establishing a national celebration day for UK Forest School community.
Katey has been a Forest School leader for 13 years. She is the director of Eco Tree Care & Conservation Ltd for 16 years and she is passionate about connecting children and adults to nature. Katey formed Forest School Day as a way of thank you to individuals in the Forest School community for all their commitment and dedication to Forest School.
Jon has been involved with forest school in Worcester and at a national level since 1999, as a practitioner, trainer, and past Forest School Association director and now Forest School Day Director. He loves connecting folks to nature through story.
