Outdoor Learning

Research consistently shows that children thrive when given opportunities for outdoor learning. At Marbach, we prioritize this by incorporating outdoor exploration into our daily schedule. Our expansive outdoor learning space provides children with endless opportunities to engage their imagination and creativity as they interact with their surroundings. Through activities that encourage problem-solving, teamwork, and social engagement with peers, children develop critical life skills in a natural and stimulating environment. Outdoor time is a highlight of our day, and we’re confident your child will love it too!
