Today is #EarthDay2024 Is your school taking part? This year's theme is Planet v Plastics. Earth Day originated from two events in 1970; one founded by US Senator Gaylord Nelson, and one by scientist John McConnell speaking at UNESCO- who knew that? @CognusLimited
Fantastic to see children from the @LEOacademies enjoying coasteering with @surfsouthwest. It would be a shame to travel all the way to Devon and not experience the amazing coastline (although I don't expect anyone stayed in the sea for very long at this time of year!)

It's great to see LEO Forest school getting ready for #TheBigSchoolsBirdWatch - what species will their fantastic birdfeeders attract. Will they see different birds in some of their schools (and I wonder how will they present their data?) @CognusLimited

Why not get children into the outdoor classroom from day 1 this term? If today is an INSET day then there are lots of inspiring ideas on the LTL website to build into your planning;

How can I take my class outdoors today? 27 To enjoy a story trail Some stories lend themselves to an active story trail or walk- 'We're Going On a Bear Hunt' is a great one to start with! What can you find to swish swash through? What other stories can you use?

Today's pond exploration @ShawleyPrimary was a front-row seat to nature's magic as we witnessed tadpoles sprouting their back legs! 🐸✨ After diving into the frog life cycle, we crafted our own mini versions to take home. Nothing beats hands-on learning in the great outdoors!

52 children have safely been returned after a week in Devon! I always forget how absolutely exhausting, but equally how absolutely amazing residentials can be. Endless amounts of laughter this week and now I'm going to sleep for the foreseeable future 💖 😴

Today was the perfect end-of-term treat for the children @WestAshtead ! 🍿🔥 They had a blast cooking popcorn over an open fire, singing songs, and playing games. Memories made and smiles all around! #EndOfTermFun
🌿 Today year 4 @HurstParkSchool delved into the world of pollination, pollinators, and biodiversity. 🐝 Our hands-on activity was to make our own seed bombs! 🌱 Fun was had by all as we learned and played amidst the beauty of the outdoors. #ForestSchool #NatureLearning 🌳

Today @HurstParkSchool the talented Year Four children tried their hand at crafting. We used potato peelers to whittle sticks, turning them into unique pens. ✏️
🌸 Exciting news! Our application for a place in the Bug Barrels Schools’ Feature at @The_RHS Hampton Court Palace Garden Festival 2024 has been successful. We can’t wait to work with children at @ManorParkSchSM1 to create a special bee bug barrel & exhibit it at the show. 🐝
A beautiful morning to start our first full day of adventures @TheKingstonAca #TKAoutwardbound @OutwardBoundUK
Today @CCJacademy the year 5’s at Forest School went on a mini-beast hunt, mastered the art of lighting mini-fires with Flint and steels, tidied up the Forest area, and concocted some magical potions in the potion lab. 🧙♂️🔥 Nature-filled adventures and hands-on learning!
Exploring nature @HurstParkSchool for the year 4’s today. We started by looking for mini beasts then enjoyed climbing trees and cooking up some fun in the mud kitchen. What a fantastic day! 🐞🕷️

The year one’s @BrookfieldSM3 had fun today making birdfeeders. They had sticky hands and big smiles as they prepared a feast for their feathered pals. Excitement is building for their up coming bird survey.🐦🌿 #TheBigSchoolsBirdWatch
Exciting times @LEOacademies Our schools have been busy crafting bird food all week in preparation for the big school Birdwatch survey next week. All you need is lard, bird seed and toilet rolls, have a go see who comes to visit! 🐦🐧🌿 #NatureEducation #BigSchoolsBirdwatch
"Forest School adventurers today @ShawleyPrimary making the most of every snowflake! Writing in the snow and crafting baby snowballs, these children turn a dusting into an enchanting winter experience. ❄️✨ #ForestSchool #SnowDayFun"
Most of our Year 3 children enjoyed their final Forest School sessions in between the downpours today ☔️ Our children toasted marshmallows over the campfire. @LEOforestschool
Exciting times @BrookfieldSM3 Our year 4’s have been sawing and using hand drills to craft wood cookies, and today they put the final festive touch—adorable robins! 🎄🔨 They have worked really hard on this project and I am so proud of them.
