Outdoor Kindergarten

You would have a received a note in your child's Friday Folder yesterday explaining our new project of outdoor Kindergarten. I have been doing an extensive amount of research lately about children learning in nature, and felt this would be a tremendous idea to bring to Henry Braun. We are going to be starting small with centre time outside, and when I think 'big', I am excited about creating an outdoor space that could be eventually used by both the school and community. I am open to any suggestions/ideas about how this space could look and be designed! I think an important part of this process will be the collaboration between students/community and school! We are about half way done cleaning the area we will be using and I am hoping to start our outdoor learning mid next week.

IMPORTANT!!!

1) Please make sure to apply sunscreen to your child each day before they come to school.

2) Please send a labeled, full water bottle to school each day.

3) Please send a hat to school each day with your child. It would be great if you could send a hat that could be left at the school until the end of the year!!!

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call or email!
