Beach School Explorers

About

Beach school has the same ethos as forest school, but has a focus on the coastal environment. Essex has one of the longest coastlines of any county in England - around 350 miles - and is one of Essex's most valued assets for its national and international importance for nature conservation, which makes beach school a valuable way to learn about how lucky we are to live here!

Run by a Level 3 Beach School Practitioner/Ofsted Registered Childminder, Lisa Brazier runs Beach School Explorers.

We cover beaches, estuaries, rivers and all inland water and species habitats to connect children to their local watery environments and the curriculum through concepts such as food chains, the water cycle, geology, animal and environmental conservation, and so on.

We regularly pop up in a variety of locations across the county, including:

Southend, Maldon, Heybridge, Mersea, Frinton-on-Sea, Walton-on-the-Naze, Holland-on-Sea, and along the River Chelmer in Chelmsford.
