95% of the food we eat comes from our #soils. But there are so many more reasons why we need to cherish the ground beneath our feet... #WorldSoilDay #Soils4Nutrition

Another (even fuller) tonne bag provided an (even bigger) teamwork and problem-solving challenge for our Year 6s! Check out their blog to read their comments bit.ly/3rhXOYA #veryexcitedchildren #BetheBestYouCanBe
How do you empty a tonne bag of leaves into one of our compost bins? Easy. With Year 6s who thrive on an #outdoorlearning curriculum, focussing on problem-solving skills and teamwork! #veryexcitedchildren (and apologies to neighbours for the yelps of delight once achieved)

Focussing on teamwork this half term, Year 6s planted the baby strawberry plants cut by Nursery children from their garden. The compost was sieved by Year 6s in our wildlife garden. Pots were donated by @GlutGardener. Our glass-roofed top corridor is the perfect 'greenhouse'!

Upper Nursery - yesterday’s session was all about eggs and today the children wanted to build a nest to protect the eggs - what an amazing nest they built, they used lots of natural materials leaves, twigs, and ferns 🍁🌱☘️

The sun is shining in our wildlife garden this morning on the first day of the spring term. Reception children were writing, sweeping, composting, checking the ponds for ice, working in teams and... climbing the tree! #outdoorlearning #inspiringlearning

Nursery children have been very busy planting 300 tête-à-tête bulbs in pots for our families to enjoy at home. Perseverance. Teamwork. Maths. Awe & wonder... What's not to love about #outdoorlearning? [Thanks to one of our parents for the generous donation.] #springiscoming
