The Autumn thread — Week 1

Colours, leaves and the changing forest

Here are the kinds of things we’ll be doing this week.

  • Colour-change observation
  • Decomposition of the forest floor
  • Autumn crafts with found materials
  • Storytelling around a small fire
  • Walks in the brisk October air

Morning, lunch and afternoon

Pick your rhythm for the week.

Session AM

Morning

09:00 – 12:00

Arrival, icebreaker, first activities and a gratitude close before lunch.

Session MID

Lunch

12:00 – 13:00

An optional, free midday slot. Morning children can stay on and afternoon children can arrive early. Bring a packed lunch, snacks and drinks, we don’t provide food.

Session PM

Afternoon

13:00 – 16:00

Drop off after lunch for the second half: afternoon activities, snack and free play.

Flexible by design

Each day splits into a morning (09:00–12:00) and an afternoon session (13:00–16:00). Book either, or both for the full day. Lunch is held in common between 12:00 and 13:00. Please note that lunch is not provided. Children bring their own lunch, snacks and drinks.

Where we’ll be

Camp runs in the Chamonix valley between Servoz and Argentière. The exact base camp for each day is sent the evening before, depending on weather, usually around Les Houches or Les Praz.
