The Parks Trust offers a wide range of nature-themed education for schools across Milton Keynes.
It's keen to encourage more teachers and parents to make use of the opportunities.
Primary and secondary schools can benefit from activities including assemblies, workshops, and youth programmes to subsidised curriculum-based sessions in and out of the classroom.
The majority of Outdoor Learning sessions are held in local parks, with topics including Environmental Heroes, Life of Plants, Wild Well Being and River Explorers.
Junior Park Rangers - for children in Years 4 - 6 - is a great way for schools to encourage youngsters to love nature, and look after the green spaces in their locality.
“Our education initiatives are all about caring for nature locally, and throughout the year we’re proud to engage thousands of young MK residents with their surrounding environments” said Sarah Griffiths, Outdoor Learning and Interpretation Manager at The Parks Trust.
“Our team of learning experts are passionate about encouraging children to get closer to nature and caring for the environment for years to come. And our amazing volunteers love it too - they collectively contribute more than 400 hours to our learning activities every year!”
Teachers, governors and parents in the new city area are encouraged to contact The Parks Trust to learn more about the educational opportunities available: theparkstrust.com/outdoorlearning
