Preschool - Inglewood Bird Sanctuary
Nature-based learning
Inglewood Bird Sanctuary is the perfect location for a nature-based preschool, complete with a learning centre, interpretive exhibits and a nature preserve filled with flora and fauna.
Play-based learning in a natural setting provides more holistic brain development with a strong sense of self. Understanding our place in the natural world increases motivation and confidence.
