Artist & Designer Louise Kirby worked in partnership with Schools & Learning and Angus Council Rangers Service at Monike Country Park<\/strong>, Crombie Country Park <\/strong>and Forfar Loch<\/strong> to develop a Learning Resource to support teachers and early years practitioners to engage very young children creatively in using the park as a stimulus to looking, exploring, listening, talking, making and doing.<\/p>\n

\"Welly<\/a><\/p>\n

Wee\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>Wellie\u00a0Wander<\/strong> <\/span>is a colourful, downloadable pack which includes images and descriptors for a variety of rich and creative learning activities using simple tools and natural materials.<\/p>\n

While the activities have been designed for the specific parks, most of them are transferable to any outdoor setting.<\/p>\n

This CPD session will run through the pack allowing you to try the activities and familiarise yourselves so you can facilitate activities with your pupils.\u00a0 This will be a practical and active session (we will be outside so wear appropriate clothing and footwear!)<\/p>\n

The evening will highlight how the outdoors can provide a rich and meaningful context for learning across the curriculum by stimulating the senses to create a memorable experience and to inspire questioning, critical thinking, creativity and expression.\u00a0 The pack encourages cross curricular outcomes.<\/p>\n
