Our program is guided by The Early Years Learning Framework and is inspired by play-based learning. Together with Early Childhood theories, educators are able to scaffold children’s learning.

We believe that shaping children to understand who they are provides opportunity for your child to develop an understanding of their world and their place within it. Our qualified, experienced staff have been hand selected to ensure they deliver these principles in a caring and supportive environment.

Each class’ indoor and outdoor program is designed, implemented and evaluated to reflect your child’s interests, and meet their individual needs. Our purpose built Early Learning Centre establishes learning environments that foster your children’s desire to learn.

Natural materials are incorporated into learning spaces and act as a third teacher, inspiring children to appreciate and explore the natural world around them.
Our learning environment prioritises the day to day care of your child so they can play, discover, and grow.
