Survey:  Education Outside the Classroom

    Dear Parents/Caregivers

    Our school policy states that “Education Outside the Classroom encompasses all those activities that use the outdoors to enrich all aspects of the curriculum and provide further opportunities for learning, personal growth and social development”.  

    Day trips to other places, class camps and Outdoor Education are all examples of activities, which come under the umbrella of E.O.T.C.   As most of you are aware, we hold an annual “Outdoor Education” week.

    The staff have decided that our  “Outdoor Education’ week in 2014 will have a focus on learning skills in the outdoor environment e.g. knot tying, using a compass, pitching a tent.  We would like to utilise opportunities in our local area as much as possible.   With that in mind, we would love to have some input from you for our planning. Could you please complete the survey below and return it to school by      Friday 29 November.

    Thank you for taking the time to complete the survey.

    The Staff – Norsewood &Districts School.
    We are considering having a school sleepover on the school property. 
    Would you be prepared to help out by either staying over or helping out
    with meals or activities for the children?
