The centre is staffed with a team of professional educators and nurturers who are highly trained and passionate about creating happy experiences. The setting is warm and home-like in nature while the playground and indoor environment have been designed to allow children to safely explore and learn with confidence. This is supported by a strong curriculum designed for active and exciting play. With 10 spaces in their nursery, and 23 spaces in their preschool, the centre provides the complete early childhood service.
