“Being here makes me feel happy. I feel calm and I’m with my friends, everyone is kind and friendly. In school sometimes I’m angry...”
“…the activities make me interested, it helps me be calmer. It gives me confidence meeting and making new friends. I was very anxious, especially meeting new people. I didn’t like it...because I felt so nervous and scared. Now, since I’ve been going to Outdoor Learning I have made new friends and I don’t feel like that anymore. It helps me feel calm.’”
