This project explores ways that children can learn outside of the classroom, walking, working and thinking as artists! By Susan Coles and Traci Cain
The Walk as Artists project, originally conceived by the NSEAD and funded by the Earnest Cook Trust, was designed to encourage children to engage with their out-of-school environment through ‘going for a walk’. This was to be carried out from a cross-curricular point of view but aimed primarily at making pupils think and act as artists. Resources would support the work which could then be shared across schools and localities
