Philosophy and Approach

At NC Nurture and Nature Preschool, we believe play is serious work for kids. Our nurturing, nature-based environment aims to create a lifelong passion for learning. Our philosophy is rooted in the understanding that children learn best when they are actively engaged, curious, and connected to their natural surroundings.

Our approach to education centers around hands-on learning experiences that foster creativity, critical thinking skills, and a love for the outdoors. We encourage children to explore their interests through play-based activities that promote social interaction and problem-solving.

In our classroom, you won't find rows of desks or textbooks. Instead, you'll see our garden, magnifying glasses, the mud kitchen, bug catchers, musical instruments, animals, paint brushes, giant letters, and even costumes. We believe that by offering a variety of open-ended materials and opportunities for self-expression, we can cultivate each child's unique talents and abilities.

Nature takes center stage in our curriculum. We have thoughtfully designed our outdoor space so children can freely, and safely,  explore the natural world around them. Whether it's observing insects up close or planting seeds in our garden patch – these experiences help develop an appreciation for nature while fostering important life skills such as perseverance and resilience.

We also prioritize inclusivity at NC Nurture and Nature School. Our teachers create inclusive environments where every child feels valued and respected at every stage of learning and development, regardless of their background or abilities. We focus on building strong relationships between students as well as between students and teachers to create a sense of belonging within the school community.
