Outdoor Learning
Family Centred Approach
Outdoor Learning
We place an emphasis on active and outdoor play, learning in and about nature, and creating connections to the natural environment. We have outdoor space for children to play, as well as take frequent trips to Cone Hill Park next door for Forest School and further exploration of the natural environment to connect children to the environment and build the foundations of environmental stewardship.
Family Centred Approach
Family Centred Approach
Family Centred Approach
We understand the importance of working together with parents to support each child's development. We view families as children's first teachers, and experts in their children. Our goal is to support the well-being of children in care by supporting the whole family and developing meaningful relationships with the families in our care. Our unique experience has offered us insight into the diverse needs of children and families, and how we can help support families in advocating for their children.
