Resilience - Nature Connection Series

“ Students who in the class environment haven’t had good resilience are able to grow in confidence in the outdoor environment” Teacher
Resilience is our ability to bounce back from difficulty. True resilience is found when outdoors, nothing is controlled or scheduled, if it wants to rain it does, wants to bite you it does, wants to show you its beauty.. it does” Being in a space that changes so rapidly helps to teach children to do the same. To understand that they can bend and move like the branches of a tree, go inward when they need a break and be themselves no matter how different they are from those around them. A flower doesn’t criticise itself for not being a tree it just does its job and blooms.
