Children in the Green Earth Kids garden

Our nature approach

Green Earth Kids™

A childhood spent close to nature grows braver, kinder, more curious humans. That belief shapes every corner of our centre.

Bushland is the learning space

Our reserve borders the playground. Ferns, figs, geckos, cicadas, a living curriculum on the other side of the fence.

Gardens they eat from

Raised beds of herbs, greens and citrus. Children plant, water, pick, wash and taste. Curiosity travels through the fingertips.

Sustainable by design

Ethically sourced materials, low-tox finishes, line-of-sight design. A building that treads gently, so children learn to.

Wildlife as teachers

Through our Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary partnership, children meet keepers, biologists and native animals, and learn how to protect them.

Wildlife partnership

A real partnership with Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary.

Our children have special access to the Sanctuary's wildlife and conservation education programs. They join Virtual Frog Lab tours with specialist Mikey Vella, meet the TinkerFrogs, and settle in for Story Time with Sarah Eccleston, the Sanctuary's head koala keeper and author of "Have You Seen a Tree for Me".

By supporting the Sanctuary's Threatened Species program, our little village is helping build a better future for Queensland's most endangered native animals.
