Our Forest and Outdoor Learning leader is Mrs Mountford, who is a Outdoor Learning and Mountain Leader accredited teacher. As well as being one of our junior class teachers, Mrs Mountford supports our staff and children to experience outdoor learning on our site; in our forest, woodland, pond and extensive grounds.
All children in Acorn, Ash and Elm enjoy fire cooking, exploring dens and shelters. All children have enjoyed cooking the apples picked for a halloween themed session. Acorn have explored and sorted different leaves after reading Leaf Man, and have been on a Gruffalo character hunt.
In the Summer Term 2023, Ash and Acorn Classes started to experience a new learning environment with our school staff and Outdoor learning Leader. They visited our local Beaches at Allonby or Mawbray each week, to learn about the beach environment. They explored, investigated and experienced high tide, low tide, lots of different weather condidtions and learned about the different creatures and their habitats.
