Outdoor Learning Area

At Maids Moreton Pre-School we understand how young children investigate the world around them.

The Outdoor Learning area gives the children access to the out-doors, taking risks and understanding the natural world, giving the children the opportunity to experience their emotions, social interactions and enabling them to continue their creative engagement with their peers.

Outdoor Learning is planned through children and young peoples learning. It requires an adult to observe the children and guide them in their experiences for learning outdoors.

Maids Moreton Pre-School have a member of staff qualified as a Level 3 Forest School Leader.

Being in a woodland environment which we share with Maids Moreton Church of England School is important we feel in supporting the children's learning, it is a good source for different textures, smells, sights and sounds for all the children to experience and learn. Children will have access to den making, bug catching, constructing their creations with sticks, looking at the birds, bark rubbing and much more.
