Overview
About Shepherd Lodge
Kids Planet Shepherd Lodge brings children close to nature in a Victorian house with a garden full of plants and trees in St Annes. Our dedicated Udeskole area hosts supervised firepit activities led by trained team members, including cooking outdoors and an allotment area will see home-grown fruit and vegetables.
Sports coaching and local outings add to your child’s experiences, with our team helping them learn through what they do and discover. We adapt activities for children with additional needs, considering how each child can take part. It’s an approach that makes room for individual development within everyday nursery life, alongside time to play and explore with their friends.

Adventures Beyond the Classroom
Bringing Learning to Life with Outdoor Play
At Kids Planet, we believe the great outdoors is one of the best learning environments. Our unique nature-based learning encourages children to explore, take on new challenges, and develop essential life skills through hands-on outdoor experiences. Whether it’s discovering wildlife, growing vegetables, or engaging in active play, we provide endless opportunities for children to learn, grow, and thrive in the natural world.
