Introduction to Earth Education

  • Apricot Centre CIC, Huxhams Cross Farm Rattery Lane, Dartington TQ9 6AA UK (map)

Following on from our first Earth Education training day in March we are now hosting a second. Introduction to Earth Education is a more general outdoor, day long training for facilitators to learn how to weave in and curate an Earth Education journey for those they are working with. Activities are aimed at all ages and are movement and sense based, making them a perfect vehicle for those who may have additional needs or learning differences.

You will gain:

  • a clear understanding of earth education - its philosophy, background and distinctiveness

  • first hand experience of several outdoor and an indoor activity

  • the skills behind creating some dynamic magical learning adventures

  • specific ways for helping learners improve their relationship with the Earth

  • guidelines for leading earth education activities and programmes

  • tools for developing programmes in your own setting

  • an overview of the earth education programmes and materials

The day starts at 9.30 and finishes at 4.30.

Lead by Mark Jefferys.
