Today we took part in Outdoor Classroom Day. Learning in an outdoor environment helps to ensure positive intellectual, emotional, and social development whilst building the foundations for a lifelong connection with nature and our planet.

We have developed our throwing, counting and turn taking skills while playing the bean bag toss…

We have developed our literacy, drama and cooperation skills while re-telling the story of The Three Billy Goats Gruff…

We have learned about the seasons and that we need to help feed the animals during the cold months while making bird feeders…

And we have learned how to keep the bugs safe in our garden by making a bug hotel..

We even found our first guest for the hotel- a baby slug…

Article 31- we have the right to relax, play and take part in a wide range of activities.
