  • Outdoor learning at Albany
This year we are having a focus on outdoor learning and have introduced Messy Mondays for Foundation Phase and Forest Fridays for Key Stage 2 pupils. These all provide planned opportunities for the children to learn and develop in the outdoor environment. Feedback from the pupils about these sessions has been very positive and we always aim to go outdoors whatever the weather. We purchased waterproof jackets and trousers for the pupils to enable these sessions to run. As part of this focus we continue to make use of the annual pass for Mountain View Ranch and in recent weeks all KS2 classes visited Newport Wetlands. Children in all year groups have had a number of school visits. The experiences gained from these provide extensive opportunities for our pupils to develop their oracy and communication skills. This has also been improved the quality of language used in the children's writing across the curriculum
