At Cliffe House we have our own inhouse training academy. This not only allows staff to gain NVQ qualifications in childcare whilst they work but it also allows our current staff to continue in their own professional development and gain new qualifications relevant to their role.

This week our staff have been doing some Outdoor maths training. Learning in the outdoors is a fundamental part of early childhood education and can help to develop children in so may different ways as the learning opportunities to them are endless.

Here are a few photos of the training they undertook and shows how things that everyone can find in the outdoors everyday, can be used as a maths activity tool.

Visit our Facebook pages and Instagram page to see even more clips of what the children get up to in the outdoors!
