OPAL PLAY
We are an OPAL School!
At Yeading Infant and Nursery School, play is an important part of our curriculum. We have partnered with OPAL (Outdoor Play and Learning) to strategically and sustainably improve our play provision.
High quality, child-led play opportunities have a critical role in supporting our aims:
-
Have the learning and social skills to succeed and contribute
-
The confidence, enthusiasm and self-belief to achieve, create and participate
-
The curiosity and passion to problem-solve, take risks and be ambitious
-
A sense of social responsibility that makes them team players, great friends and active citizens
Our children have access to a wide range of materials (“loose parts”) to support creative play.
How can families help make OPAL even better?
We welcome donations of safe “loose parts” (old, unwanted items). Please check items before bringing them in (no sharp edges, no batteries, no glass/polystyrene).
