In this room
What a day looks like
This is the room where curiosity gets loud. Children are talking, testing, negotiating and creating, sometimes all at the same time. Our educators guide the chaos into a rhythm that builds early literacy, numeracy and social-emotional skills.
It's also the room that spends the most time in the garden. Weekly Green Earth Kids activities, weekly cooking sessions with what we grew, and daily story time under the trees.
Highlights
What makes this room special
Green Earth Kids weekly
Wildlife visits, garden care and conservation stories anchored by our Currumbin Wildlife Sanctuary partnership.
Friendship & feelings
Emotional literacy is taught here as intentionally as counting. Kind, brave humans are made this way.

Book a tour of the village
The best way to feel it is to walk it. Meet the educators, wander the gardens, breathe in the bushland. Tours take about 30 minutes.
