Every teacher should buy a copy for inspiration on how to deliver wonderful outdoor learning. It is perfectly timed for the eco agenda schools are heavily investing in and the book is full of wonderful ideas that will support teaching, stir up the creative juices and really get teachers inspired about their curriculum. 100% a must buy.
