We know that schools have to get at least three competitive quotes for any project they are considering over a certain amount of money and that this subsequently has to be signed off by the board of Governors. And we also totally appreciate that when considering the quotes and options in front of them, value […]
Thankfully this very big and important issue of worldwide plastic pollution – and the damage it is doing to our planet – is now very much at the forefront of the news and social media platforms – very much helped along by David Attenborough’s Blue Planet TV series which broadcast alarming images of how the […]
The forest school programme is now firmly entrenched and practised in many schools in the UK – both in urban and town/city settings and allows participating children to benefit from real-life outdoor experiences in a woodland or natural environment.
