We are Swanmore Pre-school, a charity run setting who aims to provide high-quality Pre-school education in a curious and active environment for the children in our care. All our efforts are directed towards preparing the children for their future with their skills and their minds. As well as providing a safe, nurturing and engaging environment for our children, we also attempt to continually introduce stimulating new experiences for the children to equip them with the tools they need to live sustainably, be successful, happy and healthy in unpredictable and rapidly changing world.

We are Swanmore Preschool, a charity run pre-school as part of our setting we have our Nature Garden which is in need of an upgrade. We would love to be able to offer this as part of our everyday provision as their are many proven benefits for the children learning outdoors and connecting with nature including metal and physical health, wellbeing, engagement, behaviour, attitudes to learning, cognitive skills, resilience, self-esteem, social skills, personal development.

We all know that children learn best when they feel in a happy and healthy environment therefore if learning in and through nature supports the children's health and happiness. Through learning about and in natural spaces children will be able to develop a stronger understanding of the world and their place in it.

We would like a

- couple of outdoor shelters in order to support outdoor learning in all weathers

- An Outdoor Explorer Shed, to give the children access to equipment that will aid their curiosity and learning.

- A Camo net to allow us to submerse our selves into nature further and come part of it.

- and more outdoor learning equipment that will support the children further.
