OPAL 14.7.23

  OPAL- Outdoor Play and Learning 


                 



Tyres


We have been fortunate enough to have had tyres at Broadford for quite awhile now  


We have already found many ways to play with them including:


  • Rolling races
  • Using them as goals for football games
  • Markers for tug of war
  • Markers for running races
  • Stacking them
  • Using them as part of the den building resources




This week the children decided to see how many tyres they could safely stack. It took a lot of resilience and reciprocity to achieve. 







As you can see they were very pleased with their results. 





As always we would appreciate any more resources you could add to our collection. So, do think of us if you are having a clear out. The items we are looking for will enable us to enjoy a wider range of play experiences during playtime (see below for some examples):

  • Bread crates
  • Cable drums
  • Metal/plastic pots and pans
  • Range of plastic utensils.
  • Guttering
  • Dressing up clothes
  • Blankets (to add to our den building)
  • Small World toys (Dinosaurs, cars etc..)
  • Scooters
  • Deck chairs/ camping chairs (all sizes)
  • Outdoor cushions

Please take any donations to the school office.
