Getting Outside with P7 in the Summer Term

In this podcast episode, we delve into the importance of getting primary 7 students outdoors during the summer term, highlighting the challenges of finding time for outdoor activities and the myriad benefits of outdoor learning in reducing stress and anxiety while fostering holistic development. We discuss various activities like nature scavenger hunts and sensory exploration, emphasizing the role of senses and observation skills in connecting with nature. Incorporating art and team-building exercises enhances the outdoor learning experience, promoting strong relationships among students. Furthermore, mindfulness activities such as deep breathing and nature journaling are underscored for their role in promoting relaxation and reflection. Ultimately, outdoor learning not only benefits students academically and emotionally but also fosters a lifelong appreciation for the natural world and environmental stewardship.
