God’s creation is the best classroom for learning and instilling curiosity to learn, explore and understand the vast wonders of the world in which we live.  By heading outside and learning in nature, students improve their emotional, intellectual, and behavioral development. Outdoor learning helps foster the development of creativity, problem-solving, independence and confidence.  While learning will occur in classrooms around tables or on the floor (for younger students), as much as possible the Christian English School of Torino will include outdoor educational activities and projects within its daily routine.  The purpose of an outdoor environment is to encourage children to be active, to give them a break from being indoors, and to support learning in a variety of environments. Similar to an indoor learning environment, the outdoor space will be safe and organized and include planned activities as well as free time.
