New Outdoor Resource

IMFC Nature Nurture Project     GetImage

In March 2016 the Family Centre made an application to the Tesco Bags of Help Grant Scheme and were DELIGHTED to discover that our application was chosen by the shortlisting panel!

We went on to win third prize for our project and were awarded £8000.

Work began on the ground at the start of the New Year and today children from the Family Centre and from Isobel Mair School had first dibs on the new embankment slide.

We are sure this new resource will create fun and laughter for many years to come! Children are developing a wide array of skills whilst accessing this new resource including climbing, balancing, risk assessing, safety, sharing, turn taking, hand/eye co-ordination, spatial awareness, team work, perseverance in addition to developing core strength and body awareness, muscle tone development not to mention fun and laughter!

Have a look for yourself 🙂
