Avondale Early Childhood Education Centre are absolutely wonderful, the care and love they show all the children is so heart-warming. My daughter loves going to school and is so excited to tell us all about her day there. I will definitely be choosing the centre when it comes time to put my babies into care. If I could rate them 10 stars I would

3 of my children have attended this pre school and we have always been treated like part of the family. All the teachers were friendly and helpful with any questions we had about our children and their development. This pre school is very professional and our children have made life long friends as did we. The outdoor area is second to none, I recommend visiting this pre school above any others in the Dapto areas

The best preschool ever they have a huge grassed area that the kids can run and enjoy activities on and also a big outdoor playground these days a lot of preschools are tiny and feel in closed.The staff are amazing and when they leave are more than school I highly recommend 🤩

Fitness Program:  draws on the fun of movement and dance, the creativity of music, and the joy of active play. Each week the children enjoy a new and exciting interactive themed adventure and all classes are specially designed to encourage participation, expression and social interaction. 

Multi-Sport Program: this educational, interactive and fun program encourages and motivates children to try new things and experience the importance of a healthy and active lifestyle. Coached by experts ranging from Exercise Physiologists, Human Movement Specialists, Personal trainers and Multi-sport Coaches.  

Junior Soccer: children take part in a Soccer Fundamental Program, where they will begin to understand the rules of soccer and the benefits of teamwork. Trained coaches assist children to develop the physical and cognitive skills necessary to become a proficient player.

Excursions: the children go on visits outside of the centre that let them learn new skills and gain a greater understanding and awareness of the world around them. Some excursions include visits to the local library and supermarkets, nature exploration in the park, or nearby farm visits.

Incursions: the centre selects incursions that complement the curriculum and extend on children’s classroom learning and interests. For instance visits from the dentist or firefighters, and visits that support multicultural education.

I love education, whether I’m learning or teaching. I have a teaching background in both Primary and Early Childhood Education and Care. What I enjoy most about my work is knowing I am making a difference. Early childhood is such an important time. Being granted the privilege of shaping young minds and caring for our future generation is priceless. My mission for our centres is to truly provide a home away from home for all children, a warm and welcoming space for them to learn and grow to their highest potential while having fun and knowing they truly belong.

More important than my educational background, I’m a mum. Through this, I have witnessed firsthand the importance of quality care and education in imparting knowledge, skills and confidence. I understand what it is I want to see in a childcare. Each day, I make sure that each child that attends Avondale is cared for in the way that I would want my children cared for. This involves providing them with love and affection, ensuring they are sustained daily with the highest quality nutritional meals, and providing access to stimulating learning resources.
