Precious Promises Academy

Precious Promises Academy in Raleigh, NC has transformed their outdoor space into a diverse outdoor learning environment (OLE).  A double-looped primary pathway anchors the OLE, and leads to a variety of settings including a mud kitchen, a stump circle, and a fruit and vegetable garden.  Pockets of trees and shrubs naturalize the space, and two arbors over the pathway also provide the opportunity for growing vines.  

They also added a new infant/toddler area, with a stepping stone pathway, walking rail, teepee, and a multipurpose lawn.  Trees and shrubs were also added to this area, to add more shade and diversity.
