Nature offers rich links to the curriculum, from mathematics in patterns to science in symmetry and the life cycles of plants and animals.

​

Our nature space is central to school life, with native plants, vegetable gardens and animals part of each student's day. Caring for God's creation teaches students empathy, care and respect, and they learn to show the same care to each other.

​

Benefits of nature play include:

• assessing risk and learning to keep themselves safe

• creativity, responsibility, and resourcefulness

• problem-solving and critical thinking

• physical and mental wellbeing.

 

By engaging with God's creation, students return to class refreshed and ready to learn.
