Testimonial:
“Brookes Street Early Education has been participating in the Bush Kindy program at Northey Street City Farm since 2021, and it has been such a rewarding and enriching experience for both children and educators.
The program offers children the opportunity to deeply connect with nature in an authentic and engaging way. Each visit provides unique learning experiences, from exploring the natural environment to building resilience and problem-solving skills, to developing respect and care for the land.
Bush Kindy at Northey Street has become one of the highlights of our curriculum. The children talk about their experiences long after our visits, and we see how it positively impacts their sense of curiosity, confidence, and love of the natural world.
We highly recommend this program to other services. It not only enriches children’s learning but also provides educators with the joy of leading meaningful outdoor experiences alongside the children.”
