This centre has been nothing but welcoming and helpful from the very first email on enrolment. All staff are very fun, friendly and always welcome you with a smile and a chat. I highly recommend Grow Bundaberg. As a first time mum they made me feel very comfortable leaving my children. My boys have really come out of their shells since starting in the nursery room. We look forward to growing up with the Grow family.

We love Grow Early Education and couldn't be happier. The staff are friendly, helpful, kind and knowledgeable. The level of effort and educational activities are excellent and outdoor play areas are amazing. My children comes home talking non stop about their day, they both have learnt so much already and always feel like they belong. Centre is always kept clean and tidy and well maintained. Keep up the great work ladies.

At Grow Early Education Bundaberg North, the children enjoy a wide variety of seasonal and local produce, with a menu that provides more than half of their daily nutrition requirements. The chef-designed meals also include many vegetables and herbs from the centre’s own vegetable gardens. The centre works in consultation with families to accommodate any child’s allergies, intolerances, their cultural background or other family preferences. 

Mealtimes provide an important opportunity for children to develop good eating habits and learn about nutrition and food variety. They are also an important time for social interaction with other children and adults. 

The Educators adopt meal time strategies to teach children about good nutrition. These include things like involving children in creating the menu, encouraging younger children and toddlers to talk about healthy food choices, providing children with opportunities to eat food and engage in the mealtime routines of different cultures, talking with children about nutritious food during mealtimes. 

The parents don’t miss out either, with the centre’s own barista providing fresh coffee every morning upon drop-off to enjoy with a baked treat prepared by the centre chef.

Morning

Sophia is ten months old and starts her day off with her Educator, reading some new board books together. Sophia's mum enjoys a barista made coffee before she heads off to work.

Lunchtime

Sophia goes out to the vegetable garden with her Educator, where they are picking some basil for the centre chef to use in their lunch.

Afternoon

Sophia and the other nursery children are playing outside in the sandpit. Her Educator gives her some toy dinosaurs to use in her game with her friends.

At Grow Early Education, the Educators take a holistic and inclusive approach to educating the children. They aim to develop every child’s cognitive abilities and their physical, linguistic, and emotional skills too. 

Educators provide an enriched, flexible, and differentiated curriculum, and they place great importance on utilising appropriate teaching strategies that best assist in children’s learning and development.
