Outdoor play is a clear part of the day, and the centre highlights its large sandpit playground as a safe outdoor space that has long been enjoyed by generations of children.

What stands out most about Green Pastures is its combination of church-based values, a child-centred approach, and a long history in the neighbourhood.
