The evidence is that play in nature can enhance creativity, bolster mood, lower stress, foster social skills, improve mental acuity, well-being and productivity. Why don’t our schools do more?
Never has there been a more vital time to discuss and debate how we can improve education for our young people. A must-attend seminar for parents and educators.
This is a free public event.
