Programs

Mudgeeraba Early Childhood Centre sees the environment as the third educator, and understands that a quality environment responds to the many ways in which children learn, grow and develop. 

The warm and inviting environment of the centre lets children and families know that they are welcome, with an aesthetically pleasing, ordered, peaceful space designed to support children’s play and stimulate dynamic teaching. 

There is plenty of space for children to run, jump, be loud, enjoy hands-on experiences; as well as spaces of beauty, and quiet areas to unwind and rest.

Sustainability is at the heart of the centre, and research has shown that the earlier children are given opportunities to connect with nature, learn about the environment and their impact upon it, the more likely they will be environmentally responsible as adults. The centre is governed by a sustainability policy with embedded practices demonstrating their respect for nature.

About the curriculum

About the curriculum

Mudgeeraba Early Childhood Centre is focused on providing children the space to learn through play.  Through active engagement in free play and structured activity, children employ a range of complex networks of abilities, interests and spoken languages. Engagement in diverse forms of play fosters the development of a spirit of curiosity, experimentation and discovery with children being supported to develop their thinking and understandings, fine and gross motor skills, language, personal and social awareness, emotional well-being and creativity.

The curriculum is underpinned by the Early Years Learning Framework, which ranges from the routines of the day such as rest time and mealtimes through to the experiences and events all of which may be planned or spontaneous. 

To develop an effective curriculum for children, the centre is involved in an ongoing cycle of observation, planning, documenting and reviewing of teachings and practice.  All of their planning starts with observing children to understand and give consideration to their individual and group interests, development and learning preferences.

Meet the team

Many of the team of educators at Mudgeeraba Early Childhood Centre have been with the centre for over 10 years. The educators believe that quality interactions with educators and peers will facilitate experiences that empower children to develop strategies for active exploration, thinking and reasoning as they grow to become confident and competent learners. 

The centre’s aim is to encourage children to promote a positive and proactive approach towards the environment and a sustainable future. With a vision of providing only the best in education and care, the centre offers a high-quality educational program and educational environment, based on a policy of child-centred learning. 

Educators are inspired to collaborate with families, colleagues, company, and community to create villages whose strength lies in unlocking the unlimited potential of each child. 

Inclusion and diversity is something that the centre is proud of and celebrates. They enjoy experiencing and learning from their team and families' multinational origins. Working with families and community partners, the educators co-design strategies and approaches to remove barriers and enhance the experience for all children. 

Having worked in the Early Childhood sector since 2003, I know just how important the early years are to a child’s development. Building upon my experience and using my qualifications in Education Support, Community Service and Leadership and Management; I am proud to be leading our wonderful team at Mudgeeraba. 

We ensure that children’s education and care is our priority and families are respected and valued as co-educators in each child’s learning journey. I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating atmosphere in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. 

Come and see our warm and welcoming centre and meet the team!

You can really tell the team at the centre love their jobs, it shows in all they do and the work they all put in. It took me half a day from calling up, to a walk through to signing up. Best decision I have made!

The team at Mudgeeraba Early Childhood Centre are beyond amazing. We recently relocated from Melbourne and have found the team so welcoming. Our kids are in the best hands, they are absolutely thriving since we’ve moved. We get regular communication from the team, and it’s so easy to access daily routines and information to know what the kids have been up to. I can not recommend this centre enough! They are just amazing!

Response from the owner 17 Aug 2021

Thank you Rebecca for your very kind review. We are thrilled to hear such great feedback and that your children are thriving within our service.
