Landscape Design | Sensory Garden |
|
To provide enriching learning experiences in situations away from the formal school environment is the long term aim of the Government’s Manifesto for Learning Outside the Classroom. Quiet area products designed and installed by Primary Landscapes enable young minds to develop the capacity to learn and provide the framework for gentle social interaction, reading, studying and quiet reflection. If included in the landscape design specification, a quiet sensory garden area can provide an outside space where children can grow herbs and fruits which they are encouraged to smell and taste. These areas allow children to experience challenge in a safe outdoor environment. For example, a school can choose an area of the school grounds and design a garden to grow fruit and vegetables for the school canteen. The school can develop enthusiasm and ownership for the project by setting up a design team of pupils and adult helpers to develop ideas for the garden. A separate area can be created for each year group, giving them responsibility for looking after the plot and deciding what to grow. Pupils can be asked how this will change from season to season? Ask them why growing food locally is better for the environment? quiet . activity . environment
