What teachers have to say about our Outreach boxes:
“What a great week we had using the box! Lots of learning opportunities indoors and out with activities easy to adapt to meet our nursery pupils through to year 2. The children loved finding the objects and producing their own books. Reluctant writers were particularly engaged, which was brilliant. Thanks!”
“Everything we needed was in the box, well organised, example pieces, quality of materials (love the end papers!), easy for children to make a successful end product. Very good!”
