Let’s Go Outside!
The last 2 years have taught us a lot. One thing we’ve learnt is to appreciate the world around us more and enjoy the outside spaces we have. Whether it be going for walks, getting out in the garden or heading to the coast, we’ve all developed a new found love of being outside. As a school, we’ve always embraced being outside and many schools are now, more and more, taking learning outside when they can. Come rain, wind, sun or (without doubt) snow, you’ll find outside learning appearing on the timetable of one of our classes. We are lucky as we have a forest area and have developed our status as a forest school over the past few years. Regularly, you’ll find children in the mud kitchen or making dens or cooking marshmallows over an open fire. But it’s not just the forest area. All of our outdoor spaces are regularly used by classes to help with learning. We have an outdoor stage which is used for drama performances and music sessions. We have a gym trail which is used in PE lesso
