Gertrude
29/07/2020
Our second empathy dog, Gertrude, will start work at Nursery on Monday the 3rd of August. She will join Feddie, who is very much looking forward to his new colleague joining him.
Freddie has been with us at Nursery for a year now and has proved to be incredibly popular with our children, parents and staff. We felt that it is was only fair for him to have an assistant. We are confident that Gertrude will be equally as popular.

The benefits of outdoor learning
We passionately believe that children experience a huge range of benefits when they are playing and learning outside in natural environments. The natural world provides an infinite amount more learning resources and opportunities that can ever be provided in a single room or playground. This why we have purchased a completely secure and private nine acre field in Denholme, which it is in the process of developing into our own forest school facility, where children can be taken to enjoy playing and learning all day in a totally natural environment. We are not alone in believing this as a large number of studies show that children benefit from learning outdoors in many ways.
