Conference Handout Page
Welcome,
To the homepage of our inaugural Outdoor Learning Conference taking place on 18th and 19th July 2016.
A Journey of Excellence: Learning the Lessons from Scandinavia
This Early Years Conference will celebrate pedagogies originating from Scandinavia and best practice in embedding the philosophies of Child Centred Learning, Learning Rich Environments and Experiential Learning at home and abroad.
This conference will also prove very special as we celebrate the 1st birthday of Skogsmulle UK and the first group of Skogsmulle Leaders being trained in the Swedish early years pedagogy. July 2015 was the first step towards embedding this philosophy within the UK early years education system.
If you practice Forest School, or any other early years philosophy which focuses on child centred and experiential learning as well creating learning rich environments within your early years setting then this is a conference not to be missed.
Please see profiles of our Keynote and workshop presenters below.
