Outdoor Learning Club

This term, some of the year 2 children have joined the Outdoor Learning Club. What fun we’ve had so far!
 In our first week, we started off using the binoculars to look at the various birds that were flying around. We saw four blue tits, a robin, some starlings and the resident parakeets (who often come and join our club, watching us from their favourite tree in our school garden). We listened to some of the different bird songs, while Mrs Smith explained how the starling was mimicking the other birds we could hear.
We’ve also been using the mud kitchen in the outdoor learning area.

​The bug hunt was another exciting activity. The children enjoyed looking under logs and using magnifying glasses to look for bugs. Some children used the identification sheets to work out which bugs they had seen under the logs. There were so many woodlice and different worms hiding there.

​This week, we have been looking for signs of spring in our small garden area.
Mrs Smith has helped the children name the spring flowers that are growing.
The children spotted crocus, primroses, hyacinths and wall flowers.

​Also starting to grow again are our herbs.  The children smelt the mint, oregano and sage plants. Then we discussed where we might use them.
We are all really looking forward to finding out more in our outdoor learning club as we experience the joy and wonder of springtime.
