SECTION 1 – RATIONALE AND PRINCIPLES RATIONALE The outdoor area provides young children with one of the best possible environments in which to learn. Any adult who has watched children playing in a well planned and well resourced outdoor area with involved adults will have observed the joy and excitement they experience as they learn new skills and make fresh discoveries. “the best kept classroom and the richest cupboard are roofed only by the sky” Margaret McMillan (c1925) Nursery Schools and the Pre-school Child NSA Publication 9
SECTION 1 – RATIONALE AND PRINCIPLES “The garden was arranged on different levels, on grass and hard surfaces. There were paths, steps, logs, trees, shrubs, ponds, seats, tables, slides, ropes, swings, playhouses, planks, ladders, barrels and blocks. There was a kitchen garden, a wild garden and a rock garden. There was a plethora of natural materials – twigs, leaves, stones, bark, seeds and so on. The moveable equipment included trucks, wheelbarrows and bicycles. Children used real tools. Sand, water and builders bricks were available. Children had access to dressing up materials. The garden naturally attracted birds and they were further encouraged with bird boxes, bird baths and bird tables. Animals, including chickens, tortoises, rabbits and fish were kept. Children had access to scientific equipment and small games apparatus.” Margaret McMillan’s Open Air Nursery School, Deptford 1914. 10
