Educational Visits 

Intent Statement

Learning Outside the Classroom - Five Lanes Primary

Here at Five Lanes, we strongly value, and place emphasis on giving our children a wide range of opportunities for learning outside the four walls of the classroom.

By taking learning beyond the classroom, learning concepts become real and relevant as they are put into a more realistic context. Many concepts which seem too difficult to grasp in a classroom are a lot easier to understand in the big, wide world when they are set in context.

We believe that when learning outside of the constraints of the classroom, children can thrive, achieve more, be more engaged and motivated to understand and learn!

Have a look at our long term plan to see what educational visits and learning outside the classroom opportunities are in store for our children...
