Outdoor Classroom Day is a global movement to make time outdoors part of every child’s day. On two days of action each year, teachers take children outdoors to play and learn. All year round, the Outdoor Classroom Day community campaigns for more time outdoors every day.
To mark the Coronation of His Majesty King Charles III and to link with Outdoor Classroom Day, the Department for Education has sent more than 200,000 wildflower seeds to primary schools across England. This will give schools the opportunity to mark this historic moment. The initiative was inspired by His Majesty the King’s commitment to the environment.
If planted together, around 40 rugby pitch sized wildflower meadows would be created. The packets of seeds include native annual wildflower species like cornflowers, poppies and chamomile.
We have received our seeds and will be planting them on Outdoor Classroom Day. We look forward to watching the seeds grow and bloom.
