Outdoor Learning Experiences

At OLSK, Outdoor Learning includes discovery, experimentation, learning about and connecting to the natural world, as well as engaging in adventure activities.  

Taking the curriculum outside can improve attainment, increase engagement, and develop a wide range of skills including problem solving, communication and resilience.

Wow! We are delighted with our new makeover of the Mary Garden, and I know the Liturgy Leaders are. One family who after many years of being part of our OLSK family, who left in the summer, donated some money and we purchased our new Mary Statue- doesn't She look fabulous! We thank them for their kind donation. We thank Mrs Sweeney & Mrs Mitchel for donating the 'Welcome Bench' as part of their leaving gift in the summer- what a lovely place to sit. During the month of November, we are inviting parents to plant a shrub, in memory of a loved one, in the garden. Let us know if you would like to do this. Every day we can watch them grow!

Fabulous learning during Outdoor Classroom Day! Weโ€™ve been drawing observations of leaves, planted sunflowers and making tree hanging decorations! ๐Ÿชด๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿƒ๐ŸŒป

As part of World Ocean Day For Schools our EYFS and KS1 Eco-warriors have made a pledge on behalf of school to use only refillable drinks bottles and keep plastic out of the oceans and seas. Taking care of God's Creation.

Y5 have been exploring learning in the outdoors during @OutdoorClassDay! We have been drawing observations of leaves, planted sunflowers and made tree hanging decorations! Fabulous learning outdoors! ๐Ÿชด๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿ‚

As part of @OutdoorClassDay Y3 went to forest school and played outdoor bingo. The children loved exploring nature to find different things. We then had some time having fun climbing trees!

Our lovely KS1 Eco-warriors have raised money to adopt a sea turtle and a polar bear through WWF for Nature and they have received a certificate signed by Sir David Attenborough for their efforts. Well done we are really proud of you x

We love looking after our potatoes and beans in year 1, look how much they've grown!
