CREATION RIDGE

Zeeland Christian Nature-Based Preschool in partnership with the Outdoor Discovery Center located on 155 acres at Ridge Point Community Church.

Creation Ridge preschool classes will provide 3 and 4-yearolds exploratory and sensory experiences in an outdoor classroom and nature-based environment. These experiences bring many benefits to kids and at Creation Ridge, we have the added benefit of learning more about God in the midst of his beautiful creation.
