Bush Kinder

We believe in providing a holistic and enriching early childhood experience. Our Bush Kinder Program, tailored for children aged 3-5 years, stands as a testament to our commitment to fostering a deep connection with nature.

Our dedicated educators lead the children into the immersive world of our Bush Kinder Program. This program is designed to inspire curiosity, instil a love for the outdoors, and promote holistic development in our young learners.

Benefits of Bush Kinder

  • Our Bush Kinder sessions immerse children in the natural environment, allowing them to explore, discover, and connect with the wonders of the outdoors.​

  • The natural surroundings provide a sensory-rich environment for children to explore. From feeling different textures to hearing the sounds of nature, the Bush Kinder Program stimulates sensory development.

  • Outdoor experiences in a natural setting contribute significantly to the holistic development of children. From physical activities to cognitive challenges, the Bush Kinder Program offers a diverse range of learning opportunities.​

  • Through hands-on experiences in nature, children develop a profound understanding and appreciation for the environment. Learning about plants, animals, and ecosystems fosters a sense of responsibility towards the world around them.​

  • Collaborative activities in an outdoor setting enhance social skills, teamwork, and communication among the children. Group activities such as nature walks, team games, and storytelling sessions create a supportive and interactive environment.​

Safety Measures

The safety of our children is our top priority. Our educators follow strict safety protocols during Bush Kinder outings, including risk assessments, appropriate supervision, and emergency preparedness. Additionally, children are equipped with weather-appropriate gear to ensure their comfort and well-being during outdoor activities.​

Parent Involvement

We encourage parental involvement in our Bush Kinder Program. Parents are welcome to join selected sessions, providing an opportunity to share in their child's outdoor adventures and witness the benefits of nature-based learning.
