Nature Education
At Dwight School Seoul child will be learning outdoors on a
regular basis. Our Nature Education is a planned, inquiry-based
experience that takes place in various parks in and around Seoul.
Students will have the opportunity to develop their leadership,
teamwork and communication skills as well as build their
self motivation and confidence.
The time spent outdoors addresses our Primary Years Programme
programme of inquiry and approaches to learning skills. It puts the
context and real life application to the child’s learning. Our belief that
Nature Education benefits include, but are not limited to, the following:
• Improved
cognition,
specifically
concentration
and focus
• Decreased
levels of stress
• Increased
levels of
enthusiasm
& engagement
for learning
• Improved
physical, social
& emotional
well-being
• Increased
independence
& confidence
• Increased
problem-solving skills
• A greater sense of responsibility for environmental care
• Consideration and
the ability to learn
