When children learn outdoors their behaviour improves, whole classes are excited to learn, and individuals who feel inhibited by the curriculum often thrive in an outdoor environment. Play is equally important and central to children’s enjoyment of childhood. It teaches critical life skills such as problem-solving, teamwork and creativity.

Building on the success of the 2019 campaign, our aim is to get as many children as possible playing and learning outside in 2020. For a two-minute introduction to Outdoor Classroom Day, watch our short film then sign up to be part of the movement!
