IFSA and Celt  tutors hope to use this opportunity to gather in community with each other and with nature to deepen our awareness of the powerfulness of the Forest School approach to making our world a better place for all sentient beings. We extend a special welcome to new members, trainees and to those of you joining us for the first time.

We also extend our thanks to all of the conference ACORN committee, to Slieve Aughty Centre and the staff and to nature for her abundant beauty and constant inspiration to us all.
