Open Spaces

With amazing parklands surrounding us, we spend much time exploring these spaces to further educate children with in our setting. 

​

We encourage this by taking the children on many walks/trips to open areas taking every opportunity to engage children to the natural world.  

​

Allowing children to connect with nature and explore different types of plants can have a calming effect. Spending time outdoors allows children to explore their natural environment and the world around them.

 

​

We make the most of our beautiful location exploring the natural environment. Regular opportunities are planned for the children to visit the riverside walk, Marble Hill Park and local wooded areas.

​

These trips are fun and educational. They enable children to connect with nature, learn about the changing seasons, 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.
