Eco Preschool Camps Ltd

ECO Preschool Camps Limited is a pioneering outdoor early‑years provider that delivers a full‑day, nature‑based curriculum for children aged three to five. Drawing on the Forest School philosophy, the centre is set within the spectacular gardens of Ballymaloe House in Cork, allowing youngsters to spend every minute of the preschool day immersed in the natural world rather than a traditional classroom.

The programme blends the Early Years Foundation Stage objectives with hands‑on experiences such as building dens, creating leaf pictures, cooking in mud kitchens and caring for the environment. Through free exploration and guided activities, children develop communication, imagination, problem‑solving and resilience while enjoying fresh air, exercise and the changing seasons. The highly qualified teaching staff are passionate about outdoor learning and ensure that every facet of the curriculum is delivered in an engaging, hands‑on manner.

ECO Preschool offers a unique, holistic early‑learning experience that nurtures curiosity, confidence and a lifelong love of nature for the next generation of Cork’s families.
