Rathmines Forest School
Rathmines Forest School offers outdoor, nature-based sessions for children aged 5 to 12 at its base on Rathmines Road Upper. Weekly after-school sessions run in term time, giving kids a chance to unplug and spend time outdoors after the school day. The school also runs holiday camps during school breaks, all set within a walled woodland garden that gives children space to explore, build and play away from screens. Forest school activities typically build confidence, resilience and a feel for the natural world through den-building, fire lighting, tool use and free play.

Spraoi Forest School - Bushy Park
Spraoi Forest School runs a forest-school programme at St Pius Forest School in Bushy Park, Templeogue, Dublin 6W, covering a broad age range from under 4 up to 12 and older.

The programme primarily operates with schools, so parents interested in community or family sessions should contact Spraoi directly to check current availability, since it isn't a standard drop-in or booked class like most other kids' activities.
