Outdoor Learning Environment

Outdoor Play has many benefits for young children. Children who play outdoors regularly are happier, healthier, fitter and stronger. As early years educators, it is our responsibility to promote and encourage meaningful play opportunities in our school. Encouraging children to play outside, get moving and connect and explore the natural world are all ways to tackle our increasing rated of childhood obesity in Ireland.

Many tasks that children need to achieve – exploring, risk-taking, fine and gross motor development, basic knowledge and social interactions, can all be most effectively learned through outdoor play. 

Outdoor Environment

Our outdoor environment is designed to support inclusion and  meets the needs of all children, offering a diverse range of play experiences which include, a mud kitchen, an art and music area, planting area, sensory area, Sand and water area, as sand, water and Mud play are open-ended, the child determines the direction of their play. These sensory opportunities encourage creativity, communication, collaboration and physical activity

We aspire to emphasise the importance of independence, self-confidence, self-discipline, curiosity, creative, problem-solving, co-operation and respect for others, and self; thereby helping to develop competent, considerate, responsible members of society.
