School days with a difference at Hollingworth Lake
Learning need not take place solely within educational buildings. The outdoor environment has a massive potential for learning. We are extremely fortunate to have such rich urban and rural environments on our doorstep and our children and young people’s learning experiences can be enhanced by maximising the potential of the outdoors. We are keen to see all our children and young people having positive learning experiences in a variety of settings.
Learning outdoors can be enjoyable, creative, challenging and adventurous, it helps children and young people learn by experience. They grow as confident and responsible citizens who value the spectacular landscapes, natural heritage and culture Rochdale has to offer.
