Outdoor Learning Activities

The benefits of outdoor learning for young children are multifold. Learning outdoors helps to foster essential growth by stimulating curiosity, enhancing physical health, and instilling a deep-rooted respect for nature

Some of the common outdoor activities undertaken by our Junior School pupils include;

Building fires, bug hunts, willow-weaving, planting and growing, and archaeological digs!

All pupils participate in a range of progressive and creative outdoor learning experiences which are a planned part of the curriculum. This provides regular, frequent, enjoyable, and challenging opportunities for our girls, allowing them to thrive and explore in a safe, outdoor environment.
