Iceland update 😃 The South Coast Day proved a great success, the weather was excellent and everyone enjoyed their time spent at Skogafoss Waterfall, the black sandy beaches of Reynishverfi and the coastal erosional features of Dyrolaey. The glacier of Solheimajokull was breathtaking and its retreat poignant as a result of climate change. A drenching at Seljalandsfoss waterfall rounded the South Coast Day off nicely and the Northern Lights 'show' were witnessed later in the evening. Today everyone has seen the sites of Reykjavik on a guided tour of the city and are now currently making our way to the airport, tired but so many happy memories made. Forest at its best from the land of Ice 😍

The Iceland Tour Party arrived safe and well on Saturday. We've been on the Golden Circle Tour yesterday, taking in the Hellisheidi Geothermal Power Station, the Kerid Crater, the Great Geysir, Gulfoss Waterfall and Pingvellir National Park. The weather has been kind, low temperatures but glorious sunshine today. This bodes well for seeing the Northern Lights tonight (fingers crossed).
Started the South Coast Tour today at Skogafoss Waterfall. Everyone is having a great time and in awe at the natural beauty of Iceland 😍

We are excited to welcome you to The Forest School's Open Evening on Thursday, 19th September from 5-8pm. Due to an overwhelming positive response and in the interest of safety, the school site will be designated a no car/vehicle zone for the duration of the event.
We kindly encourage visitors to make use of alternative transport options. The school is conveniently located next to Winnersh train station, making public transport a great option. Additionally, large car parks such as the one at Winnersh Sainsbury's are available for those who choose to drive. We also encourage walking, where possible, to reduce congestion and ensure a smooth experience for all.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to meeting you.
Best regards,
The Forest School
