Nelson Alexander Foundation Day Recipient

We’re absolutely delighted to share that our kindergarten has been chosen as one of the recipients of this year’s Nelson Alexander Foundation Day. This is an incredible opportunity for us, and it’s all about giving back to the local community.

On Saturday, 13th September at 10:00am, Nelson Alexander will auction 24 Newsom Street, Ascot Vale, and we will receive the entire professional fee from the sale. These funds will go directly towards a project we’ve been dreaming about for a long time — creating a dedicated all-weather outdoor learning space for our children.

Why this matters

Outdoor play is at the heart of early learning. Children thrive when they can explore, imagine, and create in a space that’s both safe and stimulating. But Melbourne weather isn’t always on our side — sunny mornings can turn to rainy afternoons in minutes, and sometimes our outdoor program gets cut short.

With the support of the Nelson Alexander Foundation, we’re planning to:

  • Build covered outdoor areas so children can play, learn, and explore no matter the weather.

  • Upgrade natural play spaces with durable, sustainable materials that support active and creative play.

  • Extend our learning programs outdoors year-round, giving every child more opportunities to connect with nature, develop social skills, and stay active.

How you can help

The best way to support us is simple — spread the word and join us on the day!
