Agenda item

Forest School

To consider an offer from the Rotary Club of Witney to contribute towards and help establish a Forest School at Witney Lake & Country Park.

Minutes:

With the permission of the Chair this item was moved up the agenda.

 

Members considered an offer from the Rotary Club of Witney to help establish a Forest School at the Lake & Country Park.

 

The Committee agreed this was a good idea in principle, but further detailed information was required before the Council committed to the project. Members noted a forest school was already provided by one of the pre-schools so further demand should be sought, along with information from stakeholders such as the Forest School Association. The exact parameters on involvement of the two parties would be key to its progression.

 

Resolved:

 

1.      That, Officers explore the viability of a joint Forest School project with the Rotary Club of Witney and bring a report back to the next meeting of this committee.
