Outdoor Classroom Day – Thursday 19 May 2022
Posted : April 12, 2022

As part of the Swanage Town Centre Flood Defences project, Sara has invited local Swanage schools to learn more about their natural environment and celebrate Outdoor Classroom Day which is a global movement to make time outdoors part of every child’s day. On two days of action each year, teachers take children outdoors to play and learn.

The first Outdoor Classroom Day this year is Thursday 19 May 2022 and to help the schools of Swanage get involved, the Dorset Coast Forum together with the Environment Agency is offering free hosted sessions at Swanage seafront highlighting the areas that are at flood risk, how we currently protect the town from coastal flooding, innovative ways that will form part of the project to find a permanent solution and the local effects of coastal erosion.
