There is something so magical about watching a child discover the Earth with their whole heart — soil on their fingers, sunshine in their smile, and pure delight written across their face.

May his hands always find the soil, and may his heart always remember the joy of growing.

Worm Farming Workshop in full swing 🪱

As part of working towards their Worm Warriors badge, the children at Tall Tree Early Learning - Banksia Grove recently conducted a very important worm rescue.

Today, we explored an essential part of caring for living creatures — responsibility, empathy, and kindness — as we carefully rescued worms that had made their way into the bottom layer of our worm farm.

As part of our regularly embedded sustainability practices, the children worked together gently and respectfully, understanding that even tiny creatures like earthworms rely on us to keep them safe and healthy. Through this experience, the children are learning that owning pets — even worms — comes with the responsibility of caring for them completely.

Moments like these help children feel empowered and capable as they realise the huge impact their actions can have on the lives of small living things.

Through hands-on sustainability practices, the children are developing empathy, compassion, and a deeper connection to the natural world around them.
