Nature Kindy (Australia) – TimberNook Southern Sydney

Nature Kindy – WEDNESDAY Term 1 (Half Term Package)

Last Half of Term (Weeks 6-10)

Nature Kindy is a full day drop-off program following TimberNook curriculum in a way that supports enrichment and learning though nature play.

Your child will have opportunities extend their executive functions and social-emotional skills when playing in mud, climbing trees, exploring tools and working a fire.

Children will have enough time and space to freely dive deep into unstructured play with no defined end, where the conventional rules which govern the physical world, do not apply. They can enjoy close encounter play, assume roles of their wildest imagination, test new ideas, explore with all of the senses, construct with ingredients that the outdoor environment offers, develop mastery from taking risks and manipulate objects for both functional and symbolic means.

“Restore balance. Most children have technology, school and extracurricular activities covered. It’s time to add a pinch of adventure, a sprinkle of sunshine and a big handful of outdoor play.” – Penny Whitehouse

PLEASE NOTE:

• Your child must be independently toileting, we do not have nappy changing facilities.

• All registrations for programs close at 2pm the business day before for staffing purposes.
• Booking Cancellations: There is a 50% non-refundable deposit for any program cancellation. Cancellations received at least 4 weeks prior to the start of your program will receive a full refund MINUS a $50 admin fee. All other cancellations are ineligible for a refund. In the event that we need to close due to unforeseen circumstances you will be issued with a credit for a future program of equal value. We are however empathetic to the unexpected sickness that can sprout in little ones and understand that life often throws a challenge at us. As an act of compassion we will be offering each registered child flexibility of being issued 1 credit per term in the instance that they are unable to attend for any reason. We will however be limiting the number of credits moving forward and capping it to 1 accrued credit per term for use by the end of the next corresponding term.
  In the event that WE need to cancel and a credit is not an option, we can offer a refund of 20% less than the price paid to attend the program to cover royalties and administration.
• With the restrictions from COVID-19 and Services NSW please read all covid information sent in the welcome email as it will be updated regularly. We will have a hand washing station on site. If your child, or any of your family are ill with a cold or flu-like symptoms (or any other illness), you must stay home.
