Dragonflies at Rowntree Park
The Dragonflies sessions at Rowntree Park are aimed at families who have children with additional needs. Smaller, quieter sessions provide more time for families to engage with nature in whatever way is most appropriate to their child’s needs, with no pressure to participate in any particular way. The sessions are led by a qualified forest school practitioner. The forest provides a rich sensory experience, which is enhanced with hammocks, seating and activities to relax the mind. We finish with some time around the campfire with hot chocolate and marshmallows (or alternative snack) so families can get to know each other.
