Outdoor Classroom
Teaching is at the heart of what we do, most importantly in a fun, practical, hands on way. We take children out of the classroom and into a local wild place, or whatever is available, and run curriculum-based teaching sessions. These range from learning about minibeasts through to habitats and up to plant reproduction, with all in between. These practical lessons add a new dimension, making classroom learning more effective and are a very enjoyable experience for children and teachers alike.
