Fun and learning in the woods
Welcome to the Hedgehog Club
Hello
My name is Mandy Warwick and I am the founder of the Hedgehog Club. I am a Level 3 Forest School leader with over 30 years’ experience as a primary school teacher.
From the time spent as a young child recording animals and birds in my Nature Notebook, to deciding to step out of the classroom and into the woods, I have had an interest and passion for nature and the outdoors. I am personally motivated by seeing the positive impact of outdoor learning on children.
I have public liability insurance, am DBS checked and have a current outdoor first aid certificate.
What do parents say?
We have attended The Hedgehog Club at Cogges Farm for a few years and really enjoy the friendly and welcoming atmosphere created by Mandy.
The structure of the sessions is perfect for young children: a welcome for the group, free time to explore with a range of suggested activities which are different each week, and the infamous camp fire and snacks. And who could forget the delicious Forest School cookies for both the children and adults!
The children are encouraged to use new equipment safely and to explore nature in a responsible manner.
Many happy memories and mud photos have been taken at Hedgehog Club- Thankyou Mandy.
