The Bush Kinder Experience

Nature is our classroom. Inspired by the Scandinavian "Forest School" model, our program utilises the local bushland to foster creative thinking and resilience.

We encourage open-ended play and safe risk-taking on the land of the Wurundjeri People, sharing their values of respect and gratitude for the environment. After a Term 1 transition focused on safety, our children spend their days investigating the natural world.

Enriched Learning

Incursions & Excursions

We bring the world to our doorstep with visitors like Myuna Farm, Wildlife Exposure, Wayapa Wuurk, Squiggle Kids, Body Safety Australia, Melbourne Museum, alongside community walks and safety training in our local neighbourhood. 4YO groups participate in an excursion to Kew Traffic School.

Indigenous Culture

Indigenous perspectives are woven into our daily rhythm, from creating our own Rainbow Serpent to practising Acknowledgement of Country.
