Outdoor Learning Spaces
Our thoughtfully designed outdoor environment provides children with numerous opportunities for physical development and natural exploration.
At the heart of our outdoor space is a spacious covered veranda that serves dual purposes as both a comfortable dining area and an all-weather activity center, ensuring children can enjoy outdoor activities regardless of the weather conditions.
The playground has been carefully designed to develop gross motor skills and encourage physical confidence. Children engage with modern jungle gym equipment, balanced seesaws, an engaging sandpit, challenging clamber nets, and classic swings.
Each piece of equipment has been selected to promote different aspects of physical development and social interaction.
