Galactic 1 is our smaller, quieter centre — purpose-built for our youngest learners. The whole space is designed around children aged 2.5 to 5: low sinks, child-height storage, a fenced outdoor yard with garden plots and a forest-school area, and a kitchen prepping hot meals from scratch every day.
Galactic 2 is our larger campus and head office. It houses our school-age program, summer and seasonal camps, the indoor aquatics pool, and — opening Fall 2026 — the In Space Academy elementary and middle school. Older kids who started with us at Galactic 1 transition here for school age and beyond.
Our long-term plan is for a third location to serve north Nanaimo families and reduce drive times for parents currently commuting across the city. Site selection is underway; we expect to announce by late 2026.
If you'd like to be on the early-notification list — particularly if you're a family in north Nanaimo who would benefit from a closer option — drop us a note at info@inspaceuniverse.com.
The fastest way to know if In Space is right for your family is to walk through one of our spaces, meet a few educators, and see the children at work. Tours are free and welcome.
