The Woombye Way
Small community. Real experiences. Childhood should feel like this.
Woombye Childcare Nature Kindergarten is an intentionally small early childhood community for children aged two to five.
Here, children are known, heard and valued. They have time to play, learn, think, create, investigate, take supported risks and build forever relationships—with friends, teachers, families, the natural world and the Woombye community.

Wunya -Welcome to WCK
Nature, creativity and inquiry are woven through everything we do.
For more than 24 years, Woombye Childcare Nature Kindergarten has offered children a rich childhood grounded in relationships, nature, creativity and real experiences.
Our centre is where each child’s relationship with WCK begins. Children discover gardens, trees, mud, water, sand and natural loose parts alongside rich indoor studios for clay, visual arts, light, construction, storytelling, music and inquiry.
Our indoor and outdoor environments belong together. Children move between them as they play, investigate, create, revisit ideas and build their understanding of the world.
Nature Begins Here—and Grows Beyond Our Gates
Nature occurs every day at WCK.
Nature play is not limited to particular days or places. It begins within our centre environment, where children climb, dig, build, garden, create with natural materials, investigate living things and experience the changing weather and seasons.
As children settle into WCK, grow in confidence and are ready to move beyond the gates—generally from around three years of age—their learning extends to Bush Kindy at Milo and Jill’s, Green House Farm in Kureelpa and Walking Woombye.
Experienced, Engaged and Passionate Professionals
Our team includes experienced, university-qualified early childhood teachers and specialists in nature pedagogy and the visual arts.
Their professional knowledge shapes WCK’s rich environments, meaningful relationships, inquiry projects and real-world learning experiences.
Our intentionally small group sizes and generous teacher-to-child ratios give teachers time to listen closely, work alongside children, respond to their ideas and create new possibilities for their thinking and learning.
