Nature School Leadership Project – Week 1
18th September 2025
In Year 6, we have launched our exciting new project! Over the term, our oldest primary students will be learning outdoor skills and leadership techniques so that by the end they can plan and run short Nature School workshops for our younger students.
We began with:
- A nature scavenger hunt.
- Creating sound maps, sitting quietly and recording the natural sounds we could hear.
- using 'sitting stones' to help us calm our minds and bodies.
- Discussing our vision for the project – what makes a good leader outdoors, and how we will need to adapt activities for younger children to keep things simple, safe and fun.
We will keep you up to date as this programme continues!
