At St Clare’s Early Learning Centre, we believe that children learn best through play, discovery and being actively involved in their learning. We proudly create a learning environment that reflects the Gospel values, is welcoming, safe, fun and is in harmony with the natural environment.
Offering play-based 3 and 4 year old Kindergarten programs, at St Clare’s your child will learn, play, explore and have fun. Our Kindergarten is family-centred and focuses on the connections that children have with their family and community. We work in partnership with parents to help create the right learning environment for your child.
We have large indoor and outdoor play spaces, including a huge playground and garden, to give the children plenty of room to move and explore.
Our curriculum supports social, emotional, cognitive, physical & creative learning. We also a celebrate multiculturalism and include a variety of cultural events throughout the year.
Excursions are a key part of the St Clare's curriculum. Venturing out into the local area allows children to explore the world around them, and feel a part of a community.
At St Clare's, we are very conscious of keeping our staff and children safe in the sun; therefore, we are official participants in the SunSmart program.
Partnering with Saint Patrick's Primary School and St Clare's Primary School, the children have the opportunity to visit and interact with students.
