Lost words and found connections

Adventures into language and literacy through nature

We are delighted to be working with Mayfield Primary School and their communities again in 2018. This time we are able to also collaborate with Roundabout pre-school, thanks to a grant from Cambridgeshire County Council’s ‘Talking together in Cambridgeshire’ initiative.

‘Lost words and found connections’ is a child led adventure into language and literacy through nature connections. This project will share CCI’s inclusive, child-led creative practice with young children, their educators, parents, carers, relatives and wider local communities across Mayfield Primary School reception classes and Roundabout pre-school.

Through a series of artist residency workshops and after-school sessions, the project will explore creative activities which connect young children, their educators, families and communities with nature on their doorsteps and with each other. ‘Lost words and found connections’ is about being together and sharing discoveries and will creatively explore themes of talking, listening, making and creating together.
