The Holy Saviour Catholic School in Marathon Kinder team has been working hard to create, design and implement experiential learning opportunities for our Kindergarten students.

Their Experiential Learning project goal was to create an authentic transition to school for young learners by developing a 21st-century play-based learning environment. Learning flows between outdoor and indoor learning spaces and is enriched with self-regulated activities that spark an inquiry for our young learners to explore and grow. Students foster their unique individual development and strengths of future generations within their learning environment.

Although COVID-19 related restrictions have created barriers for the team this year to implement their vision for this project fully, they have started to carry out what can be done following safety guidelines and protocols. One of their initiatives was to provide outdoor gear and equipment to Kindergarten students to get out to explore, play, learn and discover outdoors!
