At Rachel Keeling Nursery School we are lucky to have a beautiful, mature garden. We are also incredibly fortunate to have a community who are green-fingered and willing to share their skills. What follows is not an exhaustive list, but rather how we have organised our outdoor learning, and perhaps some considerations you may ponder on.
We do not replicate the indoors outside. The outside is a unique and magical place; it does not need to mirror the inside learning environment.
FLORA AND FAUNA
The wildlife and plants offer our children endless awe and wonder. We follow the natural rhythm of the year when it comes to the wildlife, and planting and harvesting. It really connects us to the earth, and it is amazing how you can encourage wildlife into urban gardens with some research and consideration.
