i-can Play Football


Description of Garden: A garden designed around a miniature football pitch. With grass head players and boiled egg fans, listen to them cheer as you press a switch. Choose a team; will it be red or blue? Or are you one of the few that doesnt have a clue? Curriculum The children designed the garden around their passion for football and keeping fit. During an Ask-It session childrens ideas were discussed and shared and a class design was created. The children developed their maths skills by counting the number of players and estimating the number of plants needed. They talked about what plants needed to grow and how they would look after their plants.

RHS Flower Show Tatton Park


Camberwell Park School are delighted to be part of the RHS Tatton Flower Show 2013. As part of our Curriculum development we have been working with the Open Futures Trust, initiated by the Helen Hamlyn Trust, for over a year on their Open Futures Curriculum Programme that inspires children to become inquisitive about their environment and learning for life. As part of our curriculum planning we have incorporated the four strands of Grow It, Cook It, Film It and Ask It into our thematic curriculum, alongside other aspects of learning, including The Rights of the Child (RRS), Eco-schools, Healthy Schools and Cultural Diversity. Each class across the school has been involved in designing their own garden around the theme of i-can, with a strong emphasis on one subject and cross curricular links to other subjects. We are excited to share our plans with you for this exhibition.
