Network Event - Wednesday 1st July
We are delighted to share the focus of our upcoming Early Years Network meeting, based on the feedback received from our recent event.
The next event will take place on Wednesday 1st July at Pineham Barns. This session will explore how highly effective outdoor provision can enhance children’s wellbeing, engagement and achievement. Together, we will consider the opportunities that outdoor learning provides and how we can create environments that inspire curiosity, independence and meaningful learning experiences.
As always, the network is about more than just the theme. It is an opportunity to connect with fellow Early Years professionals, build relationships, share experiences and learn from one another.
Please come prepared to share examples of your outdoor provision, ask questions and contribute to the conversation. We look forward to welcoming you and continuing to grow our community of passionate Early Years practitioners.
