Nursery World - A winning Stretch

An established exercise programme is extending its reach with local workshops.

Since 1999, exercise programme Stretch-n-grow has been providing a springboard for nurseries to develop their approach to learning and wellbeing through inclusive, upbeat physical activity sessions. This year it has spread the word through events in areas including Bristol, Farnham and Basingstoke, and is now preparing for a one-day workshop in Swindon on 16 November.

This particular session will not only provide the full lowdown on the content of the programme, aimed at 18 months to seven-year-olds, but also give delegates a deeper understanding of the impact of movement on learning, according to latest research. Those attending will gain a CPD certificate at the end of the session.
