During a number of recent events and presentations about learning for sustainability, I have\u00a0displayed the above word cloud with the question “Where do we start?”. Different practitioners offer different responses. My response is to assure everyone that where you start is far less important than actually getting started and making the connections between the many exciting areas of this agenda.<\/p>\n

Making connections is exactly what Ben Mali MacFadyen\u00a0from Eco Drama has been doing throughout the Out to Play<\/a> project. Working with children and teachers\u00a0across Glasgow, Out to Play seeks to facilitate interaction with the natural world through quality artistic experiences, re-thinking traditional views of nature as merely \u2018sites\u2019 and \u2018reserves\u2019, noticing and appreciating nature on our doorstep. \"Eco-Drama\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Sessions\u00a0have been tailored to the unique surroundings of each school, and through imaginative play & adventurous learning, Out to Play<\/i> aims to deepen young people\u2019s connection to our natural world.<\/p>\n

Ben’s blog\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0offers a detailed and reflective account of the process thus far, providing some wonderful insights into the children’s\u00a0learning.\u00a0He has also shared\u00a0a number of very practical ideas and approaches\u00a0for engaging pupils in the outdoors.<\/p>\n
