Bury St Edmunds school 'enhances' learning with outdoor classroom

Children have been given the chance to "absorb the wonders" of their natural surroundings during lessons with the creation of a bespoke outdoor classroom.

South Lee School in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, has created the space for subjects including art and music.

Woodland Lodge has been a long-term dream for the school's head of early years, Julie Last.

She said: "It [the classroom] has enhanced our tantalising, beautiful outside environment, captivating our children almost instantaneously."
