Nurturing Nature Forest School week 2

The children’s curiosity never fails to amaze practitioners when at Shotts Nature Park. Nature is such a wonderful learning tool which is sometimes in today’s technology driven environment forgotten. Children themselves can be observed leading their own learning, risk assessing their play and above all working together whilst learning through real life comtexutised play.

We are very fortunate to have such a wonderful resource on our door step in the heart of the community. Why not take a walk and explore the area as a family.

Learning together in the Rainbow Room

The children from the Rainbow Room are continuing to learn their songs and rhymes by attending the Bookbug sessions with their parents and care givers.

Our children have also been experiencing their wider community, by being more active, walking to and from Shotts  Nature Park.

The weekly Family Learning Play on Pedals sessions are a huge success, whereby children are working with their families to improve their health and wellbeing.

With the children been introduced to Sid and Shannari they have began to explore early numerical terms such as how many? Counting in sequence.

The children have also had opportunities to develop their curiosity with foamy paint, shaving foam and painting on a variety of surfaces.
