Our Learning

Our approach to learning is holistic. We want the young people who leave us to move onto their secondary schools, to have all the skills that will help them to be successful in life. Learning therefore goes beyond the ability to perform well in exams. We prepare our pupils to think creatively, to make decisions, to get along with anyone, to be a good team player, to be someone who opts in to new opportunities, to communicate effectively with peers and adults alike, to make good use of computers and technology, and to be polite and have good manners. Above all they are motivated to succeed.

    What is Outdoor Education?

    Outdoor Education is an approach to learning rather than a subject. It gives depth to the curriculum and makes an important contribution to children’s physical, personal and social education. Read on to find out what the children think!

    At Sunninghill the programme provides a progressive experience in range of outdoor activities with opportunities to develop a sense of stewardship & personal responsibility for the environment. A key aim is the safe use of the outdoors and learning about Risk. Personal Development is a key feature of Outdoor Education and each pupil learns about the importance of leadership and teamwork, with opportunities to take on responsibility and to put skills learnt into practice. In Year 4 children take part in a 3 day residential trip and an overnight camp while in Years 5-8 they go on a 5 day expedition. Each year group visits a different area and locations travelled to in recent years include the Wye valley, Peak District, Snowdonia, Brecon Beacons and the West Coast of Scotland. In 2010 we aim to travel overseas for the first time on expedition.
