Kindy Excursion! What a day. 🌿✨
Our little ones headed out to Balaangala at The Gap to learn from Aunty about bushfoods, bush tucker, and the stories of First Nations peoples and the magic was written all over their faces.
Tiny hands lighting fires 🔥 weaving with native plants 🌿 and sipping lemon myrtle tea 🍵
This is exactly why we do what we do, grounding our kids in country, in culture, and in wonder. 🌱🦋

Heavy. Light. Smooth. Rough. Too big for one hand — better use two. 🪨 This kind of hands-on experimenting builds the problem-solving, critical thinking and sensory awareness that sticks with kids long after the rocks go back on the ground. 🌿
#CuriosityTree #BushKindy #NaturePlay #TheGap #EarlyLearning OutdoorKids
Nature Play Week at Curiosity Tree was a reminder of what kids are capable of when we give them space to just go for it. Big teamwork moments, brave attempts, and imaginative play that honestly blew us away.
So proud of this crew. 🥹🍃
