EYFS (Early Years and Foundation Stage) Guidance specifies the absolute importance of outdoor learning and activity "These activities help children in getting stimulation, well-being and happiness, and is the means through which they grow physically, intellectually and emotionally. Outdoor provision is an essential part of the child’s daily environment and life."
So early yesterday I was really impressed to see this peacock amongst the sand and water trays in Cuddington School. However, my enthusiastic anticipation of childrens' heightened well being and happiness was somewhat deflated after a colleague described the bird as a vicious and peevish creature. So the source of stimulation was, in fact, merely a health risk. Good to learn life's key lessons early I guess.
