Coastlines, rivers and natural waters have a huge amount to offer young children providing a unique environment for their learning and development. The environment and its almost daunting size touches something deep within the children and ? surprisingly ? the large space brings them closer together. This book provides a comprehensive guide to Beach School provision exploring the Beach School pedagogy, the organisation and management of Beach Schools, the learning environment and its implications for children?s wellbeing. It clearly explains the key principles of this approach and sets out a framework for setting up and leading a Beach School programme.

The book shows how the aims and outcomes of the Early Years Foundation Stage can all be achieved within the Beach School environment supported by examples and case studies throughout. Full of practical suggestions and activities, it includes:

Activity ideas covering topics such as wildlife, sensory activities, crafts, social development, physical play and construction Beach School practice in different seasons Ideas for working with children of different ages and learning styles Detailed guidance on health and safety including risk assessments

Offering a step-by-step guide to Beach School practice, this handy text will help students and practitioners to fully understand this increasingly popular approach to early years education and how it can benefit the children they care for.
