Workshop content

The John Muir Award is an environmental award scheme focused on wild places. It helps people connect with, enjoy and care for wild places on their doorstep and further afield.

We work in partnership with the John Muir Trust to support hundreds of children each year to gain their Discovery, Explorer or Conserver Awards.

  • Teachers like the flexible framework it provides which can incorporate existing topics and make connections across the curriculum.
  • Children and their parents love the sense of achievement from receiving a nationally recognised award.

We support schools with particular elements of the Award (e.g. practical conservation work) but also offer fully-led packages that include all activity plans, risk assessments, materials and equipment.

So, contact our Education and Learning Team for more information about how we can help make your workshop an experience the class will remember.
