Our Digging Patch is now open!
Amongst other things, the Enviro Hub installed the new Digging Patch at the August working bee. It has three sections - The sand pit, the matchbox dirt track, and finally, the stepping stone area. Each section caters to a mode of play that taps into kids innate creativity, giving children a chance to build upon what they have been learning that day. It is also a way for kids to let off creative steam, in a safe and tactile environment.
It may be installed, but it is in no way finished! Through observing wear-and-tear of the area, we will find out which parts work well, and which parts need improvement. In taking our lead from the students, future working bees will focus on adding to and adjusting elements of this fun little play area.
Q- Have you seen the digging patch in action? Do you plan to install one in your backyard?
Let us know what you think!
