This room is called Rata because the Rata tree grows straight and strong. The Rata room is our largest room designed to support children to become independent learners, confident in who they are. Just like the tall, strong Rata trees, our preschoolers are developing strong foundations to set them on the right path for their ongoing learning journey.

For our exciting preschoolers we provide opportunities for self-initiated and spontaneous interactions and activities that actively engage them. We seek to develop them physically, socially, emotionally and intellectually. We provide opportunities for children to participate fully in literacy, numeracy, science, arts and crafts, cooking, music and movement and a range of physical activities.
