Learning Through Nature All Year Round
Our garden combines natural elements with purposeful play equipment:
Children learn about the natural world through hands-on experiences:
We incorporate outdoor learning principles into our daily outdoor experiences, encouraging children to connect deeply with nature. Through child-led exploration, children develop confidence, independence and a genuine love for the outdoor environment. Our practitioners facilitate rather than direct, allowing children to follow their curiosity, take appropriate risks, and learn through hands-on discovery in our natural spaces.
We explore the outdoors in all weathers. With the right clothing and sensible precautions, children experience our outdoor spaces throughout the year, whether splashing in puddles, crunching through frost or feeling sunshine on their faces, and discover that every season brings something new to see, hear and do.
Our garden supports all areas of the Early Years curriculum
In our polytunnel the children grow their own vegetables from seed. They follow the full lifecycle of the plants, sowing, watering, watching them grow and harvesting, and the produce is then used in our cooking activities. It is a hands-on way for children to learn where food comes from and to take pride in something they have grown themselves.
