Keen to promote the importance of outdoor education – and make the most of the summer weather – Cheltenham College Prep School has organised a complimentary picnic on the lawn after its open evening on Tuesday 7 June 2022, from 4pm to 6pm.

As the parents of prospective pupils will discover on their tours of the facilities, Cheltenham Prep has a large outdoor learning space on its expansive grounds, where the younger children spend time learning outside every week, immersed in nature.

Nature collages, obstacle courses and soup making are just some of the wide variety of activities that pupils can enjoy getting involved in as part of their regular outdoor learning sessions.

Cheltenham Prep is also opening a brand-new Nursery School in September 2022, designed in harmony with its natural surroundings and complete with a spacious garden where little ones can venture outside – visit cheltenhamcollege.org to see CGI images of the new facility.

Benefiting from a large amount of outdoor space around the school, Cheltenham Prep allows children plenty of room to grow and also enjoys an excellent central location in the heart of regency Cheltenham.

With places for the June 2022 open evening limited and allocated on a first-come-first-served basis, anyone wishing to attend should call Cheltenham College Prep School on (01242) 265639 or email prepadmissions@cheltenhamcollege.org to register their interest.
