We chose stramash for our son because we loved the idea of him embracing the outdoors from an early age When asking Jack why he loves Stramash he says “I love water squirting and my stickman story in a circle. I love my lovely teachers – they sign us in. If I’m sad they give me a hug” Living where we do I love that jack is getting the opportunity to learn through the outdoors, gaining independence and knowledge – but in a fun,exciting yet safe environment. Jacks imagination has come alive since starting Stramash I always recommend Stramash to friends as we have been so impressed and happy with our choice of nursery for Jack

Isobel & Jack – Oban

Brilliant staff, great location, out in nature and in all weather. We love the mix of freedom and learning.

Torin loves running around, getting muddy and being out in the fresh air so naturally he loves Stramash.

We feel extremely lucky to have been able to send Torin to an outdoor nursery! Torin is loving his time there and is thriving. The staff are amazing too!

I tell everyone how great stramash is and how much Torin loves it! I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Torin is really going to miss it when he starts school but he’ll be looking forward to going to the holiday program with Juno during school hols!!! I don’t know what we’d do if stramash wasn’t available!
