"The key to the problem is spending too much time away from direct daylight. The more outdoor daylight children get, the less the incidence of myopia, and it is especially crucial between the ages of 10 and 15." #playmatters #outdoorlearning

When kids go #outdoors, they are more calm, attentive, creative & cooperative. AND the effect follows them into the classroom, creating a calmer, quieter and safer setting for learning. https://t.co/WWyHfkqIGW #OutdoorClassroomDay

For Year 4 from #ecolint Campus des Nations, the forest was their classroom today. Activities included Shelter building, campfire cookery, parcours vita... lots of teamwork, collaboration and smiles for a beautiful, autumnal #OutdoorClassroomDay @OutdoorClassDay
