At Mount Peter Early Learning, our Kindergarten program is designed to spark curiosity and a love for learning in our little people. It’s such a big chapter for them as they prepare to set off in the big wide world of primary education. We believe that mixing play and exploration while learning helps little ones thrive with the transition. We aim to build their social, emotional and early literacy skills while appreciating the wonders of nature through our Forest School. Each day spent with us is an adventure that prepares your child for the exciting journey to primary school.

Forest School at Mount Peter: Nature-Based Learning for Curious Minds
Our Forest School program encourages learning through nature. Children explore, play, and connect with the environment. Outdoor activities help build problem-solving skills, resilience, and a love for nature.
With hands-on experiences, children climb, dig, and discover. They also develop important social and emotional skills in a safe and nurturing space. Bush Kinder is the perfect way for your child to embrace the outdoors and grow with confidence.
