We love springtime and all the amazing opportunities and themes it gives us to make learning fun and inspiring for our little chicks. With Spring comes new life, and we have been busy enhancing our outside areas by planting seeds for new flowers and for vegetables.  We were so proud of all the lovely growing language used by the children and the responsibility they have taken to keep them well […]

The average child spends just five hours a week playing outside, compared to a staggering 45.5 hours in front of a screen. This is having a knock-on effect on children’s learning and development. A recent survey found that only  one in three can name a single herb, and 50% struggle to name five […]
