Nursery Room

6 weeks - 15 months

Our babies have a lovely cosy, bright room and separate sleep room. The caring, qualified staff provide a program that caters for every individual child incorporating their own routine and level of development.

Toddler Room

15 months - 2 1/2 years

We aim to provide an environment where each child feels safe and secure away from Mum and Dad and where they can freely explore different activities, social situations and experiences. Our outdoor area is separate from the older children but is still open to be able to see siblings.

Junior Kindy Room

2 - 3 years

We encourage independence in this room as children become more aware of their own capabilities. Toilet training is a focus and the children have their own bathroom with free access. The room is large and bright with many modern resources to cater for the busy minds and bodies of 2 year olds.

Senior Kindy Room

2 1/2 - 3 1/2 years

In this room the children are now able to concentrate on learning a lot more about the world around them. They have many interesting themes that they explore as individuals and as a whole group. Storytelling, singing and dancing are fun experiences in this room.

Pre-School Room

3 1/2 - 5 years

Most children here will be off to prep next year so are busy learning all the skills needed to start school. They focus on language and literacy, numeracy, developing independence and social skills. The Letterland program is used to further enhance learning of the alphabet and phonic awareness. Children also have the opportunity to learn basic computer skills with a variety of educational software available on their two computers.
