In August 2017 we were invited by Climbing Tree to attend the offical opening of the Mukanthi nature play space at Morialta Conservation Park. 'Mukanthi' is a Kaurna word meaning 'celebrate and play'. The children enjoyed exploring this natural play space, full of fun and adventure. It was also a sneak peak into what our new outdoor learning environment would look like back at kindy.
