Nature and Forest Pedagogy

Learning outdoors

An understanding of education that goes out in all weather conditions and comes into contact with nature.

We see the nature of Trabzon as an advantage. Nature pedagogy is an approach that carries the child's learning outside the four walls and makes direct contact with soil, water, leaves and season.

Outdoor time is not an event canceled by us according to the weather. We believe that rain, wind and mud with appropriate clothing are also learning materials. "There is no bad weather, there is inappropriate clothing" is the common language of our team.

Time spent in nature improves risk assessment skills. The child who climbs a log weighs his/her own limit; the teacher makes room for the child to make his/her own decision by observing the safe limit instead of eliminating the danger.

With activities such as seasonal observation notebooks, sowing seeds, insect and bird watching, natural material gathering, children take the first step of scientific thinking: notice, wonder, ask, try.
