Outdoor Learning

Outdoor learning is using our outside space to deliver the curriculum. We aim to ensure that much teaching and learning takes place outside, for all children, in all weathers. This learning experience is not a duplicate of what is going on inside, but an extension of their learning.

Children will experience the wonders of the natural world in practical play-based activities and they will also be free to explore their surroundings as they wish. There are areas for planting and growing, meditation, imaginative play and exploration.

Through using our wonderful outdoor space we encourage children to become involved in activities which will help them to gain awareness and respect for their environment. Children grow in confidence through the use of enquiry, observation and discovery. This starting point must be the world as it is perceived bythe child.

The opportunities are endless,
the rewards immeasurable.
