At Wilder Learning North Durham, we offer nature-based programs for children ages 2-10 (Ages 11-12 coming soon), blending outdoor education with a holistic, child-centred emergent curriculum. Our programs align with our mission to inspire a love of learning and deep connection with nature.
Spaces available in our Seedlings (Ages 2-4), Roots (ages 4-7), and Wings (ages 7-10) classrooms for September 2025. Full and Part Time Available.
Sprouting with natural curiosity and wonder, our littlest learners embark on their journey of discovery. Designed for preschoolers, our program offers a warm and engaging environment where children develop a love for learning through play and nature exploration. Find out more here
Our children root themselves in the deep connection they make with themselves, their learning and their community in a way that helps guide them to find their place in this world. This program focuses on building strong foundational skills through play-based, hands-on and nature-immersive activities. See our Curriculum
Once rooted, children begin to grow wings that allow them to soar into a greater world of understanding, passion, and a sense of purpose. This program for older learners encourages critical thinking, creativity, and leadership through nature and project-based learning. See our Curriculum
