Outdoor Classroom

We’ve created an outdoor classroom at Lake Treeby that is situated near our future Primary School and the nature reserve.  We hope that classes from the future school will use it to learn about the local flora and fauna.  Check out information about our Lake Treeby wildlife below:
The outdoor classroom space has a compacted summerstone surface with moss rock boulders that can be used as seats.
