OUTDOOR LEARNING FOR HOME-EDUCATORS
At TRIBE, our immersive and nature-based learning adventures supports home educators to access excellent outdoor learning opportunities
At TRIBE, the young adventurers will be busy exploring, understanding, and working in harmony with the natural world. They will learn first-hand the importance and interconnectedness of ecosystems, and the many uses for plants and trees that help make it vital that they are protected. Most of all, TRIBE adventurers will find new ways of enjoying and learning in the great outdoors, increase their confidence and problem solving skills, and develop strong friendships in the absence of modern distractions.
As an OFSTED Registered provider you can use your Tax Free Childcare, Childcare Vouchers, and UC Childcare Element with us. Check out the OFSTED page for more info on each option.
