Learn More About Our Centre expand_more
This early learning centre is designed to replicate the comfort of a family-style environment where our Educators create a warm and loving atmosphere for each and every child. Well-designed interior spaces and a large outdoor space that is full of means there is plenty of room for your children to explore and grow.
We have four rooms tailored for child-led learning as they grow and each child can enjoy indoor or outdoor play dependent on their needs and interests. We love to bring special guests and new experiences into the centre for the children to engage with and explore. We also value our connections with the community and children of all ages regularly attend excursions out into our local community.
Our Nursery has all the comforts of home with equipment and learning materials specific to the development and learning needs of children between six weeks and 18 months of age. We delight in watching your children gain confidence in what they have learnt as babies and then expand on their skills and knowledge.
Our Junior Toddler and Senior Toddler rooms facilitate each child’s learning based on their interests as they discover their independence through to our Pre-School Room where children have a sense of ownership of the room and contribute to the curriculum whilst continuing their day to day routine. Our Pre-School children are encouraged to extend their thoughts about the world around them and encourages them to question, explore and discover. This room also offers children an interactive transition to school program which incorporates project work.
