Experiential learning
Community involvement is a vital part of our curriculum- making the most of our local area, businesses, community groups and wider world links helps our children to see and experience learning through real life experiences. We aim to give each and every child 60 cultural experiences before they leave us in Year 6- that is 10 experiences between Year 1 and 6. We have 6 trips/workshops pre-planned throughout the year that links to our exciting curriculum. The other four are planned by the teachers throughout the year, such as Christmas Pantomimes, RE workshops, Bike Ability, etc.
Our 60X6 initiative details who we have planned to work with linking to our curriculum, however, we have plenty of experiences and opportunities crop up and surprise is throughout the year also! By experiencing these trips, meeting out visitors and sharing skills and expertise of those around us, our children are exposed to real life goals, challenges and battles. Ultimately, preparing them with resilience, energy and ambition to achieve their biggest goal in life.
