Education

Wilder Things offer your school or college lessons that will be both rewarding for the children and fit with curriculum targets.

Learning outdoors is unlimited!Learning in the real world helps children make sense of abstract concepts, like photosynthesis and our place in the food chain. Touching, feeling, smelling and hearing extends their learning experience and boosts curiosity, self-esteem and motivation.

It has been proven that physical activity reinforces learning and memory and just being out in the fresh air is great for children’s (and teachers) physical and mental well-being.

And because they are having fun, learning is spontaneous.

Environmental education sessions can be designed for all ages and abilities. It is particularly rewarding for children with special educational needs who struggle to learn in a classroom environment.

All parts of the National Curriculum can be taught in a natural setting. In Addition to the obvious science and geography, we can include maths, history, drama and anything else you require. Tell us what you want, and we will design a session just for you at a competitive rate.
