Play

Play is the most important part of a child’s learning. When they play, children explore, discover and create meaning of the world around them through hands-on exploration. We know that young children learn best through play and we provide an environment that allows children to explore, discover, imagine and create.

Explore

We encourage and support your child to explore new ideas, feelings and environments. Through experiences like gardening, cooking, sensory, STEM, craft, local excursions and more, our children are encouraged to challenge their ideas and build their confidence as effective learners.

Learn

We want your child to get their early education off to the best start! Our educators are committed to supporting your child as they develop the skills to help them confidently move and grow through their education journey. We involve your child in curriculum decision-making to ensure that each child’s strengths, ideas, culture and interests are the foundations of our programs. At Jenny’s ELC learning is part of the fun!

Our Community

Our community is everything. Motivated by our philosophy of providing diverse and engaging opportunities for our children to learn and develop, we partner with local businesses, charities and sporting clubs to help ensure our educators and children have the opportunity to fully immerse themselves in what it truly means to be part of a community.

There is always something fun happening at Jenny’s

Indoor and Outdoor Play

Incursion, Excursion, and Special Programs

We host relevant, fun excursions and incursions, giving children a greater appreciation of the local community. We also run special programs throughout the year, such as the Kinder Olympics, Book Week or the BDAC Indigenous Learning Program.

NUTRITION FOR FUTURE GROWTHAt Jenny’s, we love fresh, local produce

Quality, healthy food is vital for children to get the nutrients they need and grow. We source only the best meats, fruits and vegetables for the children in our centres.

Sustainable Gardens

Each centre is equipped with its own kitchen garden and our children are encouraged to get involved with the hands-on process of sustainable gardening.

From Garden to Plate

Incorporating the freshly grown produce from our gardens, our cooks prepare meals that are nutritious, fresh and very delicious!

Cultural Awareness and Allergies

It’s important to us that everyone is included and supported to be their best self. We commit to providing meals that everyone can enjoy together every day.

Pre-Kinder

Tailored to individual children’s needs and a strong focus on social, physical and emotional development. Our pre-kinder program encourages curiosity and eagerness to learn through creative and hands-on experiences, ensuring a smooth transition between programs.
