"Look deep into nature and then you will understand everything better.​​" (Albert Einstein) 

SEN Schools

Our Little Outdoor Classroom as a venue can be hired out to SEN Schools with students taking part in:
  • Outdoor Learning 
  • Nature Walks
  • Forest Walks
  • Sensory Play

The Classroom can be used by students and teachers needing:
  • ​A Base - where students and teachers can use the toilets, kitchen facilities and Classroom facilities as well as local amenities. 
  • A Classroom - where students can spend time indoors in the comfortable surroundings or the outdoor classroom to use the Classroom resources such as the mud kitchen or greenhouse or just for lessons.
  • A Shelter - Planning trips can be difficult, especially if you are travelling far.  Unpredictable weather  can cause trips to be cancelled at the last minute. If you have a school trip planned in the local area, why not hire out the the Classroom in advance of a planned trip, this way you will always have shelter in case of changing weather and there are resources within the Classroom that you can use.
  • A Resource  - The Classroom has a number of resources for children for children with Special Educational Needs. Teachers may wish to design outdoor learning lessons around the facilities in the Classroom or you may just wish to come and use them as part of your day-to-day learning.  The Classroom can be used in whichever way you want.

In time, there will opportunities for SEN School groups to use the Classroom for Outdoor Learning workshops and more information on that will be available in due course.
