About Us

Founded in 2018, Nature School ( Tadika Nature Learning ) is set amongst the natural beauty of Ipoh, Malaysia. We believe children learn best when they’re encouraged to explore, ask questions, and express their creativity. Through a holistic hands-on learning approach, we help them build social, emotional, and academic skills in a safe and supportive environment.

Located nearby Canning Gardens along Jalan Dr. Tun Ismail, TNL is a welcoming space where children can make friends, discover innate talents, and develop a lifelong love for nature.

We invite you to visit and see how we create a balance between learning and playing, helping every child to shine in their own unique way!

Start them young

In 2023, our school was featured on Channel News Asia “Growing Wild” Season 2

The documentary plants ideas about growing food while safeguarding the environment, imagining a better future for spaces and things around us.

“We appreciate this gadget-free school making learning fun and exciting for Danica. She loves all the subjects! The teachers also take the extra mile to help with her social and emotional skills. We’re thankful for this supportive school.”

“One of the values I deeply admire is how the school embraces trial and error. Children are encouraged to explore, stumble, and try again. In a world where missteps are seen as shortcomings, it reminds us that growing up is a beautiful messy process, and one that deserves patience and compassion.”

"Ana has blossomed since joining Nature School. Initially she was shy, but the teachers were caring and attentive. Gradually, she became more independent and eager to try new things. We feel at ease that she looks forward to schooling and comes home cheerful and bubbly."

“The freedom encourages confidence and independence. We’re deeply appreciative towards the TNL team guiding with patience and care. My boy (enrolled since 3) learned to express his ideas, and develop problem-solving and social skills. The environment inspires a love for learning. A wonderful  foundation for any child !!”
