Outdoors

All of our outdoor areas have been redeveloped to incorporate natural resources and physical development in outdoor play. A gardening teacher comes in weekly to plant and grow different plants and vegetables with the children. We have our own minibus that allows us to take children on trips further afield and takes children to forest school lessons weekly.

Here at Honey Pot Huyton, we have a large garden area to the rear of the building, as well as an additional baby garden. This allows children of all ages to have access to the garden in a safe environment during the day. The garden supports all seven areas of learning, so there are opportunities for the children to be physical, carry out mark-making, enhance their mathematical skills and much much more. The garden also features a mud kitchen supporting children’s holistic development. The bike track challenges children to exercise their gross motor skills and they are challenge to push themselves along on the bikes and develop the skill to pedal themselves.
