Outdoor Classroom Day is a global movement to make time outdoors part of every child’s day. On two days of action each year, teachers take children outdoors to play and learn.
On Thursday 4 November the ELC children participated in Outdoor Classroom Day by walking to Fullarton Park. We discovered Aboriginal totems and the community fruit trees. We ran, climbed and explored nature with friends. The children collected fresh limes and we made lemonade (with limes) on our return to the ELC. Learning was evident on the walk as we discussed road safety, identified digits on letterboxes, planned our route and built physical stamina.
