Outdoor learning
As an accredited “Outdoor Learning School”, we view the outdoors as an extra classroom.
When planning our learning experiences, we always ask the question “Where is the best learning environment to achieve our objectives?” and then plan accordingly. Our Outdoor Classroom area with Fire-pit and our Spiritual Garden are key aspects of this and are being used for a wide range of curriculum based activities linked to RE, PSHCE, Science and English etc.
