Forest School first resonated with Munirah when it was introduced in her Diploma. She has background experience in Early Childhood settings and actively volunteers, specifically working with young children. Munirah is also warmly known as Moon to some of the children and is quickly becoming famous amongst the groups for her awesome knot and rope skills.  

Munirah's favourite thing to do in the forest is to watch the children grow in character and personality. Also being able to witness firsthand when children overcome their fears such as height, mud, insects, the list goes on!

Tampines Eco Green is one of her favourite nature areas as it is close to the heartland.

As well as being a naturally brilliant Forest School Leader Kirsty is a qualified children’s nurse and Public Health nurse with a passion for supporting the emotional health and wellbeing of children.
