Early Learning Centre

Welcome to Early Learning for 2024

We're thrilled to extend a warm welcome to our new families who have joined our community this week along with all our existing families returning to the Early Learning Centre (ELC) this year. This is an exciting time for children as they continue their journey of education and growth.

It has been wonderful to see families becoming part of our community, we look forward to seeing many parents at our Parent Information session Thursday night (week 1). We look forward to this event as it is designed to foster connections between staff and families. These gatherings are a valuable opportunity to meet the extended staff team in a social and informative environment.

There has been lots of information that has been shared with new families throughout the last week and initial days, however this is to help you all feel connected and to settle into the routines of the Early Learning Centre.

Children have settled extremely well over the past few days, as they have navigated new classrooms, new faces and changes in routines. Each child has shown courage and independence as they have faced challenges.

We are so excited for the year ahead to see individuals and classes flourish!
