Welcome to Play School: Where Nature and Learning Come to Life
At Wise Earth Play School, we believe that to truly connect with nature and the Earth, children need more than a playground they need a living community in the open air and under natural sky.
Here in Fernleigh, our days unfold in rhythm with the land. A circle of curious minds gathers beneath the trees, surrounded by birdsong, chickens and fresh air. Together, we explore the art of discovery through hands-on crafts, with a new theme woven into each season.
The heart of Play School is connection, to nature, to each other, and to the joy of simple moments. Whether we’re exploring our bodies in the play shed, tinkering in the workshop or gathering herbs for tea, or open ended play invitations, every experience invites children to grow in confidence, empathy, and creativity to reach out beyond thier immidate loved one into someone in the community, a new firend.
Our mission is twofold:
For children: a nurturing space to lead their own play, develop independence under your loving guidance and feel delight in learning.
For parents and caregivers: a gentle invitation to slow down, observe and rediscover the art of supporting play with presence and ease.
Wise Earth Play School isn’t just a playgroup, it’s a community of learning and belonging. Together, we celebrate the wild beauty of childhood and the wisdom that nature offers every day.
Open to children aged 2–4 years and their caregivers our sessions invite families to explore, connect, and share the journey of lifelong learning. As part of Wise Earth Bush School’s vision “Leading the learning revolution back to nature”. Play School is the beginning of a beautiful continuum of growth that flows into Bush School and Skill School programs.
Come join us this Summer/Autumn season as we gather, sing with the wind and play our way back to what truly matters.
