Using a growing environment to improve our health and wellbeing
• Reflect and observe EYFS/KS1/KS2/KS3 During a tour of Tuppenny Barn take time to pause, meditate and reflect. Use natural resources to experience the wonder of our world. Play games, go on scavenger hunts and enjoy being outside.
• Wild art EYFS/ KS1/ KS2/ KS3 Use natural materials and our beautiful environment to inspire your artwork. Make mandalas on the ground with found resources, paint with natural paints or draw with charcoal.
• Natural colours EYFS/ KS1/ KS2 Nature produces a vast array of colour variations. Use natural paints and the plants growing at Tuppenny Barn to capture these colours. Go on a colour hunt around the grounds.
• Inspired by nature EYFS/ KS1/ KS2 Using the beautiful surroundings at Tuppenny Barn participate in creative writing. Create poems or stories using nature.
“Fantastic local education centre for sustainable living. Lots of community events, school trips etc, using only organic produce. Well worth supporting as this centre plays a big part in the local community around Emsworth.”
