Holistic learning: a holistic approach to early education for children from 6 weeks old until they start school. A play-based approach sets children up for a love of learning.

Inclusivity: children can build a sense of community and connection through relationships with educators, other children and their families. They will learn skills such as empathy, kindness, and how to form friendships.

Nature: the centre is focused on making the most of the natural surroundings. The daily activities reinforce the connection to nature. Children will learn things like how food is grown through the vegetable garden, or the life cycle of a butterfly.

Local suppliers: the centre is committed to sourcing good quality ingredients from local suppliers. These will be used to prepare the wholesome, nourishing food for the children on site. Providing healthy food is one of the centre’s top priorities.

Parent involvement: the centre prides itself on its relationships with families. Communication, feedback and input from parents is very much welcomed and encouraged. Parents can volunteer their time, or attend special events, to help build that bond with the centre.

School Readiness program: this includes visits to the local schools, numeracy, literacy, science, library days and discussions around what to expect at school.

Incursions and excursions: based on the children’s interests with visits such as Henny Penny hatchlings, science programs and under the sea. Children also head out the gates once a week for their weekly Bush Kindy program, Bardon Shed morning tea or community walks. 

Music and yoga program: a holistic program that incorporates both music and yoga, where children learn about inner wellness and wellbeing.

Life skills program: the children are introduced to life skills including self-help, personal safety, risky play, gardening and cooking.
