— WHAT TO EXPECT

A warm, welcoming space to explore and create.

We believe children learn best when they’re given the space to follow their own curiosity.

Our Outdoor Classroom is guided by an emergent approach to play. Rather than following a rigid plan, we observe what children are interested in, listen to their ideas and allow the play to grow and change with them. You might see an invitation begin one way and become something completely different by the end of a session, and that’s exactly the point. We provide the materials, environment and gentle guidance, while our little learners decide where their ideas will take them.

01
Child-led Play & Exploration

Children move freely between learning stations, following their curiosity. Each space is prepared to encourage independence, problem-solving and meaningful discovery.

  • Storytelling and early literacy

  • STEM provocations

  • Creative arts and sensory play

  • Schema play: transporting, connecting, enclosing

02
Family Group & Storytime

We end with a calm, connected group time to wind down and reflect together. A story linked to the day's theme brings everyone together before we say goodbye.

Dress for a mess. Bring a water bottle, a hat, and a sense of wonder.

Term Programs

FORTNIGHTLY SESSIONS

The heart of Curious Little Learners. Our term programs offer a series of themed Outdoor Classroom sessions filled with opportunities to explore, create, get messy and play. Each session brings something a little different, with sensory play, nature, creativity and imagination woven throughout. Children are free to move at their own pace, follow their curiosity and see where their ideas take them
