About Mrs Julie Preston
Outdoor play is an important part of childhood. It's exciting to see our children exploring their natural environment and the world around them, being curious and finding joy in seeing new things. We like to encourage our Children's imagination whilst playing and learning outside.
Our outdoor play is all made of natural resources including a bug house, mud kitchen and sandpit.
