Yr 4 kept moving to keep warm this afternoon. It felt milder than this morning, but then the temperature dropped and the snow started to fall! 🥶

Ready to step out into the outdoor classroom in 2026? 🌱 We asked educators to tell us why they choose to teach outdoors. Before you head back to school after the holidays, discover why they think you should give it a try this year, plus their advice for getting started 👇 ltl.org.uk/news/why-you...

This is the collection of outdoor practitioners that the wonderful @creativestar.bsky.social put together. We will all sorely miss her

Forest School Jo @parksideforest.bsky.social · 03/01/2026

Such sad news. @creativestar.bsky.social was instrumental in bringing together many outdoor practitioners on here and always strive to support and connect others.

The feathered ice on the skylight above my bed first thing in the morning! Ice is pretty, but hoping the iced dew on the glass doesn't equal an icy lid on the pond!
