We feel so fortunate as a family to have found it and will be so sad when their time is over but can’t wait for our daughter to attend in the future. The boys will definitely be attending the weekend and holiday clubs to see all their teachers and visit their favourite spaces! Recommend 100 percent!!",

My daughter resembles it to being in Narnia. They get up to all sorts of activities, my daughter has grown in so much confidence and her imagination knows no bounds. She has adored every second she has spent there so far.\n\nThe staff are magnificent and so loving and caring, they're like a second family every single one of them looks after your child like they are their own. My daughter expresses so much love and adoration for all of them. They are of the highest training and I have never worried about my child being there. I don't even give it a second thought when dropping her off now, she struggled at first with it being her first nursery setting but they made us feel so reassured and took it at pace with my child.\n\nI could write about Into the Ark all day, I recommend and push anyone who is thinking of sending their children here to do so immediately. I cannot wait for my youngest to start there and I honestly never want my daughter to leave 😭 Thank you ladies for everything that you do! You truly are a blessing.",

The children are encouraged to take part in fire circles and various activities however none of it is forced which has suited my structure hating son brilliantly.

## About this day nursery

Into the Ark Forest School in Scarisbrick offers a distinctive outdoor nursery and pre-school experience within its private woodland, providing a nature-immersive environment for children aged 3 to 5 years. The curriculum is child-led, fostering exploration, creativity, and a deep connection with nature, which includes activities like tool work, building structures, and caring for animals.

The school operates during term time, from Monday to Thursday, 8:30 AM to 4:00 PM, and also offers a Home Education group on Fridays. It emphasises developing physical and emotional confidence through hands-on learning in the natural world.

The school maintains low staff-to-child ratios, with one staff member for every five children, to ensure personalised attention and support. They are Forest School accredited and fully insured for their adventurous activities.

While promoting independence and resilience, the school prioritises safety and encourages positive social interactions among children. They have a single annual intake in September and may admit children who are close to turning three at the start of the term.

Our ethos

We believe in nurturing children's natural curiosity and fostering a deep connection with the environment. Our child-led approach encourages exploration, creativity, and resilience through outdoor learning experiences in our private woodland. We aim to support children in becoming confident, independent, and imaginative individuals, promoting positive relationships and a healthy respect for nature.

What it's like

Children show excitement when they arrive at the inclusive outdoor setting and greet their friends. The learning environment inspires children's curiosity, and they use critical-thinking skills when building a mudslide or making imaginative creations. Staff responses motivate children, and they make good progress in their learning.

Leaders work closely with external agencies to seek additional guidance, assess and identify emerging needs. Staff implement individual plans that identify additional strategies to support learning. Children with SEND make good progress alongside their peers.

There aren’t enough positive words in the dictionary to use about this school. The location and staff are perfection. Both of my boys are so excited to go everyday and miss it when it’s the holidays. The memories and experiences they have had will stay with all of us forever. We feel so fortunate as a family to have found it and will be so sad when their time is over but can’t wait for our daughter to attend in the future. The boys will definitely be attending the weekend and holiday clubs to see all their teachers and visit their favourite spaces! Recommend 100 percent!!

I honestly don't know where to begin this review, my daughter has been at Into the Ark Forrest School for a year now since she was 3 and I can never seem to find the words to express how magnificent they are. The place is like a magical enchanted Forrest where the children play and explore all day outside just like they're supposed too. My daughter resembles it to being in Narnia. They get up to all sorts of activities, my daughter has grown in so much confidence and her imagination knows no bounds. She has adored every second she has spent there so far. The staff are magnificent and so loving and caring, they're like a second family every single one of them looks after your child like they are their own. My daughter expresses so much love and adoration for all of them. They are of the highest training and I have never worried about my child being there. I don't even give it a second thought when dropping her off now, she struggled at first with it being her first nursery setting but they made us feel so reassured and took it at pace with my child. I could write about Into the Ark all day, I recommend and push anyone who is thinking of sending their children here to do so immediately. I cannot wait for my youngest to start there and I honestly never want my daughter to leave 😭 Thank you ladies for everything that you do! You truly are a blessing.

I genuinely could not recommend Into the Ark more. All the staff are not only extremely friendly but absolute experts in what they do. Every member of staff really takes the time to get to know and understand your child individually. My little boy loves coming here so much, every time I drop him off I feel so happy, relaxed and confident knowing he will have such an amazing time and is in the safest hands. I really do believe they have played such a huge part in shaping him into the confident nature loving little boy he is and I am so grateful to them. My husband and I regularly say that signing him up to Into the Ark was the best decision we have made.

I honestly can't put into words how special this place is. The staff are genuinely lovely and the experiences the children get are incredible. Both my boys talk about forest school all the time and even though my eldest is almost 7 so not at the nursery anymore he still loves to go back for the holiday or weekend clubs and utilises the things he learnt there. It's just such an amazing, unique, beautiful, supportive setting and the kids thrive with the freedom.

My son started into the ark home ed sessions 2 and a half years ago they have been amazing! He spends his days playing, exploring, learning new skills, using tools and inventing all sorts of contraptions. The staff are wonderful and supportive, very empathetic to the children's needs and because of this into the ark is a beautiful safe space for children to grow. The children are encouraged to take part in fire circles and various activities however none of it is forced which has suited my structure hating son brilliantly. Into the ark have helped my son to grow and develop at his own pace where he is comfortable I always highly recommend into the ark, having worked in several nurseries and as a childminder it really is the most amazing and unique setting around!
