We are creating a centre that feels warm, welcoming and genuinely child-focused, with a strong emphasis on play-based learning, relationships and natural environments.

Our beautiful new centre has large outdoor spaces which include a large natural playground, loose parts play yard, chickens and guinea pigs, and a small produce garden where children can help grow things like lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers.
