Working with children is both a privilege and a responsibility. We all want the
young people in our care to engage with learning and thrive in our settings, but
children often spend large parts of their school day learning indoors. They are
also spending more of their free time in sedentary or technology-based
activities. While there is nothing wrong with these activities in moderation,
entire days and weeks spent away from natural environments is known to be
detrimental. Children’s brains are hard-wired to connect with the natural world
and unless they are exposed to such environments on a regular basis, they risk
being denied essential opportunities for optimal neurological development. At
Cambium Sustainable we are passionate about getting children and educators
outdoors and engaging in high-quality programmes. We offer a wide range of
accredited courses that will enable educators to take learning out of the
classroom and into natural environments that have been shown to build children’s
self-confidence, emotional literacy, social skills and self-esteem. Cambium
