Out and About

The university’s setting provides extraordinary opportunities for children to engage in cultural, artistic, scientific and academic activities. We believe the out-of-doors is an important part of the learning environment. Our playground is designed to facilitate open-ended play and exploration. The grassy area provides a natural habitat experience.
