🌿🐺 WOLF Play (Whitchurch Outdoor Learning Fun) Update! 🐺🌿

We are delighted to share the fantastic progress we have made with our WOLF Play initiative this term! 🌟

Our children have been loving two exciting new outdoor play opportunities: 🏖️ Six large sandpits outside the Year 1 and Year 2 classrooms
🛞 Tyre rolling down the hill on the school field

It has been wonderful to see children of all ages exploring, creating, playing together and enjoying the great outdoors! 😊💚

👏 A HUGE thank you to everyone who has helped make these amazing projects possible:

⭐ Mr & Mrs Gregory for donating the giant tractor tyres
⭐ Mr & Mrs Chapman for providing the sand
⭐ Brook Farm Aggregates for donating the aggregate
⭐ Mr & Mrs Evans for giving up their holiday time to help fill the tyres
⭐ Mr & Mrs Law for funding the wood for the lids
⭐ Mr Little for building the sandpit lids
⭐ Our Governors and children for painting the lids
⭐ All parents who donated sand play equipment and storage

Your generosity and support have helped create something truly special for our children. ❤️

🌳 What’s Next?

Work is already underway on the next phase of WOLF Play! Mr Little has been clearing part of our nature trail to create a free-play digging area, which we hope will be ready very soon. 🚜🪵

We also have exciting plans for: 🏕️ Den building
🎳 Outdoor bowling
🏃 Obstacle courses
🎭 An outdoor performance area

💰 Fundraising for Wellie Racks

To support year-round outdoor learning, each class will be taking part in fun fundraising activities to help purchase their own wellie racks. 👢 This will not only support outdoor play but also help children understand the value of money, teamwork and working towards a goal.

💚 These wonderful opportunities are only possible because of our amazing school community. Thank you for your continued support, donations and encouragement.
