Out of the Blocks in action

Where it started

Helping educators put movement into practice.

In July 2023, Curro Somerset West shared photographs of educators taking part in an Out of the Blocks training session presented by Ansu Human.

Practical guidance is central to our approach: helping adults lead activities well, support learners with confidence and make movement part of everyday learning.

The photographs show activities shared by Curro schools. They do not establish measured programme outcomes, and individual preschool activities should not be taken as examples of the full Play and Learn curriculum.
