Hands-on discovery comes alive as preschoolers connect deeply with nature at the Agroforest.

At The Grange International Preschool (TGIP), meaningful learning extends far beyond the classroom. This was brought to life at our Agroforest Farm Day on 29 May 2026.

This event was a student-led showcase spanning four months of hands-on learning, as our preschoolers progressed from planting seeds to nurturing a thriving agroforest.

Confidently guiding their families through the farm, they shared what they had grown, built, and discovered along the way. Our young learners also demonstrated how to prepare a simple ginger salad using ingredients harvested from their own ginger plot.

Supporting Farmers in Timor-Leste

More than a showcase, Agroforest Farm Day also served as a fundraising initiative. Families took part in meaningful activities such as tree planting and harvesting fresh produce together with their child. Funds raised will support a group of farmers in Timor-Leste through, connecting our students’ learning to a wider global impact.

Why Authentic Experiences Matter in Early Childhood Education

Through these authentic experiences, children develop essential life skills such as communication and problem-solving, while deepening their understanding of sustainability and the world around them.

At TGIP, we nurture life-ready learners who grow with purpose, and are ready to make a difference.
