OPAL
In September 2024, we started an exciting journey with OPAL (Outside Play and Learning). Through this programme we have made a commitment to improve opportunities for physical activity, socialisation, cooperation, coordination, resilience, creativity, imagination and enjoyment through improved play for ALL children.
OPAL is based on the idea that, as well as learning through good teaching, your children also learn when they play. As 20% of their time, in school, is playtime, we want to make sure that this amount of time (equivalent to 1.4 years of primary school) is as good as possible. Children today don’t have the same freedoms we once did, so we want to give children back time to really enjoy and learn from play. After all, it’s a child’s basic human right.
