🌱💚 What a busy and brilliant day we had in Outdoor Learning today!
Every single child was an absolute delight: hard-working, attentive, supportive of friends, and full of enthusiasm. Here’s what they got up to:
🌿 Potted on pepper seedlings
🌿 Planted shooting peas
🌿 Harvested a variety of veggies and fruit
🌿 Laid out onions for drying
🌿 Built a pea wigwam
🌿 Watered and cared for the garden
🌿 Tasted black tomatoes and water-filled cucumbers
🌿 Created beautiful veggie boxes and sold them to parents after school
🌿 Enjoyed moments of mindfulness, taking in the beauty around them
💖 A truly lovely day of learning, teamwork and nature!
🌿 Thursday 27th June was all about outdoor learning at Llangan!
We picked, planted, tasted, bug hunted, and prepped — our outdoor learning space gives us so much! 🥰🌱🐞
We also pepped herbs and dug vegetables ready for the Farmer's Market
Here at Llangan Primary School, we’ve been making the most of every dry spell to take our learning outdoors — and what a busy and exciting time it’s been!
This week in Outdoor Learning, we’ve been buzzing with activity (and not just from the bees!).
Our young naturalists had a special opportunity to observe a nesting bird up close, guided by visiting wildlife experts who helped us understand more about the habits and habitats of our feathered friends.
Meanwhile, our veggie patch has been a hive of productivity! The children rolled up their sleeves to sow new seeds, plant summer crops, and harvest the fruits (and veg!) of their earlier hard work. We were thrilled to pick our first broad beans, crunchy radishes, and even some juicy strawberries 🍓—a real taste of summer.
It’s been a week of learning, growing, and connecting with nature—Llangan style!
This week, Dosbarth Mochyn Daear have been putting their Forest School skills into action as they created their very own wood cookies.
Using tools safely and confidently, the children practised whittling techniques and worked with natural materials to produce a set of unique, hand-crafted wooden discs. These "wood cookies" will now become part of our classroom environment—used in a variety of ways to support learning across the curriculum.
Whether it’s for maths manipulatives, storytelling prompts, or nature-inspired art, these beautiful natural resources bring a bit of the forest indoors and reflect our belief in the power of outdoor learning to spark creativity, resilience, and independence.
Da iawn, Dosbarth Mochyn Daear—a fantastic example of meaningful, hands-on learning rooted in the great outdoors.

What an amazing day of outdoor learning we had, even though the weather was a little on the chilly side! Big thanks and congratulations to Year 1/2 for showing incredible dedication to the task—every single child was rocking their wellies! 🎉👏
