What a great variety of loose parts available to the children in the outdoor environment at Poppies Day Nursery Aldershot Hampshire

I am currently supporting Claire and her team by holding Discovery Sessions for them on The Curiosity Approach

You can see how engaged and interested the children are and how much they value being able to use loose parts in their play outdoors.

A great example of loose parts outdoors.

Our Day Nursery is a local setting whom I have had the privilege of working with over the last couple of years.

The transformation of their setting by undertaking The Curiosity Approach accreditation has been amazing. Rosie and the team have truly embraced the approach and are a great example to anyone who is interested in following this approach.

A big thank you to everyone who attended yesterday's Outdoors Discovery Session including those from Little Lambs Day Nursery

It was really good to hear you share your current practice, your thoughts on the outdoors and what you provide in your environments outdoors.

I could tell there were many Weather Warriors in attendance.

The next Discovery Session will be held on Tuesday 24th March and we will be focusing on Schemas.

Tickets are still available. Please see the link in the comments.

March is Self-Harm Awareness Month 💜
A time to raise awareness, break the stigma, and remind people they’re not alone. If you’re struggling, your feelings are valid and support is out there.
Sometimes just listening and showing kindness can make a huge difference.

Lovely feedback from Little Explorers Pre-school whom I delivered a Discovery Session for on the area of the Great Outdoors.

It was good to hear about their current provision in their outdoor environment where they have already introduced loose parts and authentic resources plus the children have access to a greenhouse.

Thank you to Rachel and her team for inviting me to hold a second session for them and I hope to hold another Discovery Session for them in the future.

🌿 Thank You 🌿

A big thank you to Tracy from the Curiosity Approach Network for delivering such an inspiring outdoor environments training session last night.

Our Little Explorers team really enjoyed the session and it gave us lots of ideas to continue developing our outdoor spaces and experiences for the children.

We’re excited to bring what we learned back into the setting 🌱✨

Thank you to Clare, Theresa and all the team at Poppies Day Nursery Aldershot Hampshire for inviting me again to hold an in house Discovery Session yesterday evening.

This time we focused on all things Authentic Resources. It was good to hear you speak about the types of authentic resources you have at the nursery and your understanding of the benefits to the children in their play.

I look forward to seeing you again next month.
