Centre Manager

As a family-owned Centre our philosophy to early childhood education focuses on the child as an active agent in their own learning, valuing the individual identity of each child. Children are motivated to learn when they have opportunities to make choices in an environment that is enriching and stimulating.

The vast, contemporary structure, lobby, and reception area of our centre are made more homely and welcoming by the incorporation of natural materials. The playrooms are bright and airy, with subdued colours that promote relaxation. Beautiful walls infuse a room with a natural feel and provide a warm, blank backdrop for the tasteful display of artwork, murals, pictures, and more. The older kids like a protected outdoor area where they can play and create, thanks to the inclusion of safe, grassy spaces and a sand pit. These areas were made with kids in mind, allowing them to run about and explore while also picking up some valuable lessons.

We have natural components, handcrafted wooden equipment built from recycled materials, quiet spots to sit and contemplate, areas that inspire active play, musical elements, and water play elements in the outdoor spaces planned for each age group. Your child can realise their true potential at our centre

We love to connect with our local community through excursions and community activities that feed into the children's interests and learning.
