Living Willow Tunnels and Dens Workshops for Primary Schools
Combine art, nature, and outdoor learning as pupils create living willow structures; a unique hands-on workshop to enrich your school grounds.
What can you make out of living willow?
Working with living willow is a great way of adding beautiful structures to your outdoor area. We can build domes (up to 2 metres in diameter) and tunnels (up to 10 metres long).
Which age groups can take part?
This workshop is an ideal forest school project and is most suitable for children in key stage 2. It is normally organised by working with small groups, either the same children all day or different groups throughout the day.
How long does it take?
Each workshop varies depending on the project. To make a two metre willow dome or tunnel takes approximately half a day.
When can you book this workshop?
Living willow must be planted when it is fresh which is between late January and early April, so all workshops must be timetabled during these dates.
