Each child is supported through those important early years to explore and develop their social and emotional skills through their early educational journey by a dedicated team of university-qualified Teachers and Educators. They create learning experiences in a nurturing environment that fosters creativity in a safe environment for young age groups.      

Guardian Fig Tree Pocket is open from 6.30am to 6.00pm every weekday, so each family are provided with plenty of flexibility for the hours they work and the time they choose to drop off and pick up their child. During drop-off or pick-up times, we encourage you to stay for a little while and spend some time exploring the early learning environment.  

Our Educators and Teachers can show you the various play materials and education spaces to help you discover our approach to education programs as well as support you continue the learning with activities at home. We encourage involving the whole family in their child’s care and education to ensure they are happy as they learn and grow.  

Our family communication app, Storypark, provides you with photos and updates on your child throughout the day, offering you the opportunity to stay informed about your child’s early learning and development. We also set up different learning outcomes for the children through Storypark, which supports them in achieving developmental milestones and understanding new ideas.  

For children aged three and four, we have a kindergarten program led by university-qualified Teachers that can support your child in their preparation for the step up into primary school. Our kindergarten curriculum is based on leading child development research and demonstrates our commitment to providing the best possible start to life for your child through quality child care services.  

Our early childhood education program is led by specialist Educational Leaders who guide teaching and learning in a flexible and research-supported way. The leading curriculum supports discovery and the best start to life, as well as being aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework and the National Quality Standards.  

Through our high-quality kindergarten program, children have the opportunity to learn some of the skills that are often only introduced in early primary school. We begin learning and exploring shapes, numbers and letters through fun, play-based activities.  

We develop each child’s literacy and numeracy skills to help them feel confident and prepared during the challenging leap into primary school. Our high-quality program supports diverse needs and routines, and we ensure each child’s cultural and family background is supported and encouraged.     

We’re committed to nutrition, and our on-site cook prepares each meal fresh and packed with all the nutrients that children need at their age. We encourage your child to engage in food preparation and to ask questions about where their food comes from, why it’s good for them, and how they can eat it. We also encourage exploration of the cultural heritage behind different foods, helping promote diversity and inclusion from an early age.   

As part of our unique Visible Learning Program, you will get an understanding of their child’s education. Our Learning Exchange Display will provide the opportunity for our Teachers and Educators to share updates on your child’s progress. It will also be a chance for you to have direct input into your child’s learning!

• We have a veggie garden and chicken coop, where children can collect fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as eggs, throughout the day. We then provide the opportunity to try these different foods at meal times, involving children in the entire process of preparing, cooking, serving, and eating foods.
• Plenty of natural space for children to keep their imaginations engaged. We have large open grass areas with beautiful big shady trees for cooling down under in summer. There are also some gorgeous garden areas and a digging patch for when children feel like getting their hands dirty in nature.
• The modern fort is a popular attraction, with the children coming up with all sorts of imaginative games and ideas for how it can be used for learning. We also have two large sandpits, which provide motor skill development opportunities for younger children and introduce an understanding of shapes and building for the older ones.
• A large natural playground that lets children develop their independence and confidence in a safe and secure setting. The outdoor area as a whole is spacious, nestled on three-quarters of an acre, allowing children to roam freely and providing plenty of space for exploration and running around.
