Nestled in the scenic town of Lyttelton, Kidsfirst Lyttelton provides a vibrant and sustainable learning experience for children aged 2-5 years and their families. As an active participant in the Enviroschools programme, the kindergarten emphasizes environmental education and instills a sense of responsibility for the world we live in. The expansive outdoor area, situated on a hill, offers various levels for play and learning, blending cultivated and wild spaces to cater to different age groups and skill levels. Through engaging in physical challenges, children develop confidence and a positive self-image. They also take an active role in caring for the environment, participating in gardening activities, feeding birds during winter, and utilizing rainwater for the sandpit. Every aspect of the outdoor environment serves as a valuable teaching and learning tool, with an abundance of natural resources available for children to explore and incorporate into their play. The kindergarten places a strong emphasis on minimizing plastic use, reusing resources whenever possible, and maintaining a safe and clean environment through daily checks conducted by the children themselves.
