There is a place where children

are not only seen but heard,

where the sweet sound of their laughter

envelopes your entire being.

Here teachers are forever young

because of the energetic little bodies

and enquiring minds that keep them

on their toes.

There is a place,

hidden from the harsh realities that age us,

where your passport to entry is a rich imagination,

stamped by kindness,

compassion and love.

Inquisitive.

Affectionate.

Shy.

Colourful.

All are welcome to contribute, enjoy and

celebrate the growth and milestones

of the little people.

Here, in this magical place,

a jumbo aeroplane in the middle of the playground, 

with not one but TWO slides ,

ready to take off to whichever destination

you can imagine.

There is a place where a large

orange butterfly mural and

red and white mushroom stools

welcome you;

a place where fairies and gnomes

converse with Robins and lizards.

What makes this place so special

is not just the safety and freedom

of expression that it offers children,

but it’s its ability to stay with you

long after you have left.
