Some excellent news about our school grounds arrived via email this week. We have been successful in our application for the Learning Through Landscapes Nature Grant! This has entitled us to some bespoke training for staff to ensure our school grounds are being used to their full potential providing exciting opportunities for learning outside the classroom. We have also benefited from £500 to spend on outdoor resources.
Our school council SPEAK, met to discuss which resources they would like to purchase and it was decided that the best choice was a large scale construction kit to be used in the Quad during break times and lunch times. SPEAK felt that this would encourage collaboration between younger and older students and would be used by all students each and every day rather than just for particular lessons. Our exciting new resources will be arriving mid January!
Huge thanks, and congratulations, must go to Miss Day for her successful application!
