The great outdoors was the focus of an 'al fresco' parents' evening at Camborne's Flying Start Nursery in Cornwall.
Staff decided to have an outdoor learning theme for their termly evening so that they could show parents what their children enjoy doing in the nursery's large garden and how they learn from it.
Well over half the nursery parents attended. They chatted to each other and the staff while enjoying snacks and drinks and watching their children engage in typical nursery activities. These included water and sand play, kitchen role play, a compost digging pit, guttering and balls, and blankets placed under the trees laid out with Duplo, cars and books.
