The Great Outdoors

The Kindergarten makes the most of our beautiful location to explore the natural environment. Regular opportunities are planned for the children to visit the river, Marble Hill Park and local wooded area. These trips and fun and educational. They enable children to connect with nature, learn about the changing seasons and appreciate and protect the environment. Children are encouraged to participate in collaborative play, physical activities and challenges.

Children also participate in regular gardening where they sow seeds and plants. This encourages them to tend to flowers and vegetables and introduces them to lifecycles. Children learn where food comes from and taste the different food they have grown.

The children have daily access to our safe and enclosed outdoor area during all weathers, this provides children additional opportunities to develop their physical skills, explore nature and large-scale learning.
