Local youngsters learning about animal feeding signs.

Welcome to the Green School website

Green School teaches wilderness living skills, bushcraft and tracking to people of all ages and abilities. Our ancestors had an amazing understanding and connection to the environment in which they lived and would have used many of these skills every day. You may be surprised by how easy it is to engage with local wild spaces and get close to some amazing British wildlife and plants.

Green School aims to give each of its students an understanding of how our ancestors may have done things and the confidence to go into the great outdoors and feel comfortable and at-home with nature.

Our courses are relaxed and go at a pace that is easy to follow. We have a “hands-on” approach and encourage every student to participate. Come and enjoy the process of being involved. We are about having fun and learning to enjoy nature and the outdoors in a responsible, respectful way.

Green School is based in south-west Hertfordshire, on the edge of the beautiful Chiltern Hills near the Ridgeway National Trail.
