Spending time with nature has been proven to enhance childrenβs cognitive development, creativity and overall wellbeing. Β This revamped outdoor area will ensure children have access to quality educational opportunities extending beyond the classroom walls.Β
Major Trevor Gray, Project Lead, stated βLeuchars Station are extremely grateful for the funding received from the NAAFI Fund. Β The Centre, staff and children are delighted with the provision and are excited to use and explore their new area.βΒ
The built structure will be utilised as an outdoor classroom for children to rest and relax Β away from the Centre, along with providing a stimulating sensory area for some the children who have additional support needs, something which the Centre has required for a long time. Β In addition to these much-needed enhancements, a new perimeter fence installation has also significantly improved the aesthetics of the Centre’s outdoor area and increased the overall security for all children and staff.Β
