Teach Out Toolkit

Nature Play SA’s Teach Out Toolkit offers suggestions and resources to support with class management, setting up in the outdoors and working with ease and confidence to deliver curriculum in a dynamic outdoor environment.

The toolkit also features an Outdoor Learning Passport for students; this is their passport to outdoor learning and adventure! Students can take it with them as they explore the magic of the natural environment and enjoy lessons in the outdoors.
