Darren Lewis

As the Director of Ignite Unlocking Potential, my purpose is to create child centred, strengths based, trauma informed rich learning environments that enable every child to realise their full potential and thrive. Harnessing nature-based learning pedagogies (rooted in Frobelian, Forest School and Scandinavian based pedagogies); coupled with a therapeutic nature connection lens that supports holistic, relational, whole child development. This approach fosters multi-sensory, engaging and experiential learning experiences that promote children's physical, mental, emotional and social development to co-create teaching and learning experiences that are engaging, meaningful and create a felt sense of inclusion and belonging for every child.
