Starting Easter 2025
We are starting workshops this Easter
We are offering a brand new service for the upcoming Easter holidays.
Come and help us design our dedicated outdoor area, learn about the outdoors and the nature that surrounds us. We will be using nature and foraging to create our arts and crafts. We will learn how to make our own paints and paintbrushes. Lots of exciting activities to do!!
​
Three planned activities every session plus learn how to cook crumpets on an open fire. Enjoy a warm drink and crumpets and fruit at the end of every session. (Please inform us of any dietary requirements).
​
​PLUS
Explore the bug world, and mini wildlife pond.
Explore the sensory tent for some time out if needed.
Enjoy climbing and balancing.
​
Sessions are designed to create interest in our natural world, learn new skills and independence in a safe controlled manner.

Children will need appropiate footwear (Trainers or Wellies), warm clothes and coats. We will be staying out in all weathers, although we do have shelter. You may bring a change of clothes in a bag.

Follow our renovation
Currently I am studying to be a certified outdoor therapeutic practitioner. I will finish this training by February. I will be using this time to put together teaching plans, looking for financial funding, as well as renovating the landscape. Currently it is very overgrown!
The Ferry Boat Inn was at the heart of the community back in the 1700 - 1995. Although it is now our home, I still have the same working goals, in which I want Ferry Boat Arts to be at the heart of the community. Spending time within an outdoor environment is therapeutic and restorative in itself, coupled with the therapeutic value of creativity, participants will be able to focus on their wellbeing holistically.
If you have any thoughts or you feel we could help in any way, or if you could offer any assistance with our plans, we would love to hear from you.
You can follow our progress with the renovations of the site on the link above, or follow us on Facebook and Instagram on the links below.
