Buggin' About 2026

Does your little one like to explore? Are they fascinated by nature? Do they love nothing more than being outdoors?

Our pre-school nature sessions give you and your little one time to explore and learn all about nature. With a mud kitchen for messy play, firepit for group fun, themed craft activities for imaginative fun, there is so much to do at Buggin' About. Each week we have a new nature theme to help shape your little one's learning about the wonderful world in which they live. Our nature activities cater for all areas of children's development as well as giving you precious time together in our beautiful centre grounds. Buggin' About ... where nature and adventure combine.
