Connections Early Learning has been architecturally designed to enhance safe, connected and stimulating learning experiences inside and out. On entering, you are welcomed by a space to connect, grab a coffee, explore what the kitchen is preparing for the day.
Our indoor spaces are generous, light filled and well-resourced areas that have direct access to safe courtyard style outdoor play spaces.
Three amply shaded playgrounds encourage active learning. There is also a mini outdoor sports field with space to run, kick, throw and tumble and our very own farm where little hands can become green fingers.
Downstairs there is a purpose-built swim school with a temperature controlled indoor pool with safe and ample parking that has direct reception access.
Dreaming hubs
(from 6 weeks)
We have two dreaming spaces designed to meet infant’s individual patterns for sleep, feeding and social interaction. We believe in a high level of ongoing communication with each family as these routines change and evolve.
Exploring hub
(15months-2years)
Our primary goal for our Toddler room is to promote play experiences in a happy, safe and nurturing environment that build confidence, social skills, and communication, physical skills, and social responsibility as we care for each other and our environment.
Belonging hub
(2-3years)
As children continue to discover and make social and cognitive connections our three pre kindy rooms provide supportive and nurturing environments to build confidence and a sense of belonging through the play-based curriculum underpinned by the Early learning Framework.
Becoming Hub
(3-4years)
Our 2 Kindy rooms are designed to provide discovery of self and the world around them in preparation for the early learning years. This is immersed in a play-based curriculum informed by the Early Years Learning Framework.
Kindergarten Hub (4-5 years)
Our Centre provides a Government Approved FREE Kindy program for eligible children 40 weeks per calendar year.
