Outdoor Classroom

The importance of the outdoor classroom and what it can do for our students.

Outdoor classrooms bring learning to life. It allows students to explore their learning in various ways in a different setting rather than in a classroom. An outdoor classroom is a space that brings learning outside. It becomes a gathering place for teachers and students and provides an opportunity to integrate nature into your school grounds. By giving students the opportunity to get outside and experience nature, they can bring learning to life.

Outdoor Classroom Day: is a global campaign to celebrate and inspire outdoor learning and play. September 7, 2017
