We provide holistic, organic Early Childhood Education and Care.

Set in a native bush environment and guided by the philosophical approaches of Rudolf Steiner, Reggio Emilia,  Maria Montessori, Emmi Pikler, ​RIE; Magda Gerber's Resources for Infant Educarers approach and the principles and practices of Australia's Early Years Learning Framework.
