What would we do without our wonderful Pollok Community Orchard volunteers? They are fountains of knowledge on all things garden & growing - and put their wisdom into practice to create a beautiful green space for their local Pollok community 🌳🍎 Thank you so much for your time & dedication, we really appreciate you!

Happy 🌟 100th 🌟 Out to Play arts-based outdoor learning residency to us! To celebrate this milestone, we’ve taken a moment to look back at some of the fantastic numbers the project has clocked up since 2015 🎭🌱

In 2014, as part of her research into childhood & the environment, Eco Drama’s artistic director Emily considered how drama & storytelling might support children to connect with nature, in all-concrete school playgrounds. Stories teach us how to notice & appreciate nature where we are, and by shifting from the reality of “What Is” to the creativity of “What If,” children can imagine forests or act as animals without needing green space or special gear - Out to Play was born!

Over the past decade, the project has embraced & developed a distinct focus within the UK’s outdoor learning landscape, by centring its approach on drama & storytelling. These creative tools engage learners emotionally, fostering a deep, memorable connection to their outdoor learning & play that leaves a lasting impact.

A big thank you to the schools, nurseries & drama artists who’ve shared our Out to Play journey with us – here’s to arts-based outdoor learning, today and every day 🌱💚

A very special thank you to children & staff at Glenboig PS (N Lan), who participated in our 🎉 100th 🎉 Out to Play residency! Project sessions explored themes of biodiversity, sustainability & global citizenship through drama, storytelling & creativity, in the school's wonderful outdoor space 🐞🎭🌱

And would you look at the beautiful thank you cards made by pupils for Drama Artist Izzi Joss, who led the school’s residency sessions – thank you so much! We loved working with you & wish you many more Outdoor Learning adventures 😊

‘Thank you for teaching us useful skills through drama! You have taught us so much about our planet and how to take care of it! Thank you for always showing up (even when the weather’s horrible). We won’t forget you!’ – Glenboig PS P6/5 pupils

‘We will incorporate lots of elements into all areas of learning but particularly within IDL topics. It was very useful to see how sustainability can be taught through drama, incorporating the outdoors. It was also great to see all the areas of the playground used in different ways providing future inspiration.’ – Glenboig PS P4/3 teacher
