Our programs
Four little burrows, one big adventure
Play-based learning for children aged 0–6, guided by the Early Years Learning Framework — and shaped every day by your child's curiosity.
Our approach
Learning that follows the child
Our days are built on play — the most powerful way young children learn. Educators observe each child's interests and weave them into intentional experiences across literacy, numeracy, creativity, movement and social skills.
Because our groups are small, there's time to slow down, to wonder, and to give every child the responsive attention that builds real confidence.
🦔 Tiggywinkles
Gentle beginnings for our youngest. With the smallest group and closest ratios, babies settle into calm routines of sleep, feeding, sensory play and lots of cuddles. Because of the design of our Cottage, they also get the opportunity to play and interact with the older kids. This is beneficial for all children as it teaches them interactions and socialisation with lots of different ages and mimics the interactions of a home with older siblings. They also have their own space for quieter retreat!
0–2 YEARS
3–4 YEARS
🐇 Cottontails
Friendships bloom and imaginations run wild. Early literacy and numeracy grow through stories, dramatic play, group projects and plenty of outdoor adventure. Children in the Cottontails group get to have exposure to the Puddleducks program during group time as they start to prepare for School Readiness.
2 - 3 YEARS
🐰 Flopsy Bunnies
Busy, curious toddlers finding their feet. Days are full of language, movement, messy play and the first steps toward independence and learning to navigate the environment around them. From 2 years, the children can start to interact in Cottage group activities like soccer.
