This video takes a look at some amazing outdoor area ideas at St Peter's C of E Primary School in Ashton-Under-Lyne in the UK.

I take a tour round the outside, and describe the numerous learning opportunities. There are so many brilliant EYFS ideas that address learning across the whole curriculum.

There are some amazing ideas, including:

-An outdoor stage area, with potential for a backdrop

-The music area made from a pallett and assorted objects

-A potion area, and an ice exploration area linked also to potion-making

-Exciting mark-making and literacy areas, including a literacy shed for independent largescale mark-making

-A brilliant maths area with a wealth of learning opportunities

-Water play rich in opportunities to problem solve and explore

-Digging and nature areas

-Largescale den making

--A fantastic castle that the children designed themselves, and that is great for climbing, building dens and role-play.

If you are interested in me coming to your school or nursery and showing off your spectacular ideas, then please feel free to email me at [email protected]
