Reconnect with the outdoors

A fusion of wellbeing, education and nature

 

Our mission is to provide outdoor enrichment experiences to the entire community, breaking down perceived barriers.

Our commitment to community
and sustainability

Out to Learn is committed to building community partnerships and embracing nature-based organisational principles. We focus on developing physical skills, supporting mental health, and ensuring accessibility for individuals with SEND.

We believe that cultivating a sense of responsibility for the planet begins with a profound connection to nature, promoting well-being through practices such as ‘slowing down’ and achieving ‘flow states’.

Our fully funded holiday camps offer free experiences and we accept childcare vouchers for paid sessions. With our OFSTED registration, families can reclaim up to 80% of fees.

We take pride in our partnerships with Herts Sport Partnership and the Hertfordshire Community Foundation, which further enrich our community.

Join us on this journey to foster a love for nature and enhance overall well-being.

Senior Leader working in education?

We can help you to bring the classroom outside and inspiration back

 

Through working with schools we have developed enrichment and intervention packages to suit a variety of needs. Learning outdoors brings with it new opportunities for children to self-regulate, build relationships and reinvigorate their inherent love for learning.

Nature always finds a way to express itself. This week we were looking at the effect of laying cardboard over the beds in the #polytunnel and why it stops growth. This little one took advantage of a single staple hole in the cardboard offering us a valuable insight into how plants grow.... so we sang a song about it 😉 #natureeducation #outdoorlearning #powerofnature #kidsinnature

Amidst the turmoil of life;  a night in a sleeping bag by the fire under the stars; being awoken by the grunting and barking of wild deer close by after melting into the dawn chorus an hour before. Then a cool swim in the early morning sunny warmth while admiring the geological beauty of the landscape and contemplating our place within it... helps me to retain perspective on what this project is about and why we do it. Feeling blessed #wildswim #natureconnection #ridgeway #peaceinnature #perspective #outdoorlearning #bushcraft #childreninnature #outdooreducation

Using trays of water rather than a spirit level to teach the children how we find horizontal level. It was  beautiful to watch how much sense this made to them and how creatively they engaged with it using fingers and sticks to compare the depth of the water. They also used different levers and fulcrums intuitively so that they could easily lift the heavy structure at various points. #appliedscience #appliedmathematics #outdoorclassroom #outdoorlearning #alternativeprovision #ofstedregistered #pond  #natureconnection #natureinschools
