What the parents say

What the parents say

Shane

I have had the pleasure of having my children attend several early learning centres, and I can honestly say that Little Scholars Ashmore has been the standout. The staff provide the care, kindness and attention every parent hopes for, but what has impressed me most is the way they have supported not only my children, but me as a parent as well. One of the biggest benefits for my family is that my son, who attends Guardian Angels, can be collected from school and brought back to the centre for after-school care. This has made a huge difference to my workday and has helped me avoid the dreaded school traffic. Thank you, Little Scholars, for creating such a welcoming, supportive and genuinely lovely environment for families.

Tiahna

We couldn’t be happier with Lyndal and the team at Little Scholars Ashmore! Our daughter absolutely loves attending and has built such wonderful relationships with her educators and friends. The team genuinely cares about the children and creates a warm, nurturing environment where they can learn, grow and thrive. As parents, it gives us so much peace of mind knowing she is happy, safe and excited to go each day. We’re so grateful to be part of the Little Scholars Ashmore family 🤍

As the Dad of two young girls in Little Scholars Ashmore, I couldn’t praise this school for taking such deep care for my girls.
Being apart of the school for over a year now, I have come to understand the detailed approach the leadership team has put in place to ensure my girls thrive in a caring place. What Lyndal has done over the last year has been amazing. The excellent communication and event planning is top notch. Miss Tina is a family favourite but all the carers go above and beyond.
Also it needs to be mentioned how present the founder Jay is with little scholars. I see why this place stands out so much because of the care around safety and development Jay instills in his team.
I will be recommending all my friends and family to put their kids into a Little Scholars school as the care from the top is trickled down through the organisation. This put my mind at ease knowing my girls are in safe hands.

Titan

My child has been attending Little Scholars Ashmore since 10 months old. They are now of school age and still attending their before and after school care service and vacation care. The staff treat the children like their own! Ultimate professionalism on display each and every day. The standards never slip and I feel blessed for their continued service, love and care.

Meet the team

Our educators and staff are here to help your little one to feel safe, happy and engaged.

Lyndal, our campus manager is here to greet families and answer any questions you may have. If you don't immediately see Lyndal, you'll likely bump into Zaria, our 2IC, who is here to make your day easier and your child's day brighter. 

For our kindergarten children, our early childhood teachers will help your child develop all the necessary skills they can take with them as they confidently transition to prep.

In your child's studio, there is a lead educator and supporting educators to support your child's early education. Our Little Scholars’ mission is to deliver the highest quality early childhood educational experience imaginable for children and families. It is the people who make our learning environments so memorable, and it is thanks to our kind-hearted, passionate, and qualified educators who help make this possible for our Little Scholar children and families.

We have established a family-like environment where Little Scholars Early Learning is committed to ensuring all our educators have access to on-going support and training, they require to further support their professional development, and we provide every educator the opportunities they desire to reach their highest possible potential as an early childhood educator.

Our educational programs follow a curriculm we call "The Collective" and are child-led and educator supported. These weekly programs, which can be seen in our studios, are responsive to the evolving interests and needs of the children and allow for flexibility and extended periods of play and research to test theories. This enquiry-led teaching strengthens children to become competent and capable across their developmental domains. The Collective allows educators to follow the children’s lead and actively

About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

Little Scholars offers a range of studios tailored to different age groups, each designed to enhance learning and development in a nurturing environment. From the Nursery for the youngest learners, focusing on care and comfort, to the Toddler, Pre-Kindy, and Kindergarten studios, each space is crafted to support the specific developmental stages of children up to five years old. Activities and curriculum are age-appropriate, encouraging play-based learning, social skills, and foundational education.

This streamlined approach of an emergent curriculum supports educators to adopt child development theory and put into practice.

Our educational program is based on the premise that children are most successful at learning when curriculum experiences account for children’s interests, strengths, and individual needs.

The Collective encompasses all aspects of Little Scholars, including a collaborative approach with our children, families, educators, and community.

Our weekly programs, which can be seen in our studios, are responsive to the evolving interests and needs of the children and allow for flexibility and extended periods of play and research to test theories.

Health and Nutrition

Health and Nutrition

Little Scholars believes that health and wellness is the foundation of growth, early childhood development and education. 

Developing healthy eating habits is a fundamental skill for young children and we play an important role in helping your child learn about and enjoy a variety of nutritious foods each day. That’s why our Little Scholars campuses employ qualified chefs to prepare tasty, nutritious meals and snacks in commercial kitchens. These meals are safe, developmentally appropriate and properly portioned for your child. It’s a recommendation from health authorities that children in long daycare are provided with at least 50 per cent of their daily nutritional requirements whilst they are in care.

We have an exciting rotating four-week menu that changes seasonally and incorporates a variety of flavours and textures to support our children trying new things, expanding their palates and promotes healthy eating. This menu always on display for families to have a look at, and we’re always open to suggestions from parents!

We provide your child with opportunities to enjoy healthy foods that promote growth and allow them to learn food preferences and good dietary habits that help them live a healthy lifestyle. Little Scholars offers a seasonal Feed Australia-approved weekly menu, which includes vegetarian and halal options if required. We devote significant resources to allergy requirements, all combined with our user-friendly online allergy notification system.

Healthy eating from early childhood also means children will have less chance of developing chronic diseases like heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity and some cancers. But it will also mean they feel great and enjoy life more!
Health and Wellness is essential for our Little Scholars growth and development and encourages the children to live robust, happy, and fulfilled lives.

Bush & Beach Kinder Our little scholars explore Mother Nature daily which is literally on their doorstep. They step outside and become outdoor explorers and the rest is history.

Pram Kinder No matter how little you are, even our littlest scholars partake in outdoor adventures and become outdoor explorers.

Drawing Lessons Young minds are hungry and always ready to learn new things. Our drawing lessons with Mr Tom offer our kindergarten children a world of exploration, creative expression, and expertise all in one. These classes are supported by Tom Gant from You CAN Draw!

Cooking lessons Our little scholars express themselves through the art of cooking and are opened to a world of opportunities for creativity and exploration. Watch your little scholar become their own little chef.

Yoga Watch out for your competitor yogi friends because yoga is on the weekly agenda for our little scholars! Yoga is more than just a fun activity; it is an outlet for coping with stresses and promotes a happy mind.

Sport Think personalised obstacle classes, soccer, swimming and more. Our little scholars are supported with expert teachers who promote fun and educational fitness lessons for the children.

Dance Dance provides the joy of dance and music in young children while creating and promoting musical appreciation, rhythm, coordination, fitness, social skills and most of all fun! Children are taught a range of dance techniques including ballet, jazz, lyrical, tap and more, in a relaxed, enjoyable atmosphere.

We’ve had a great experience with the childcare. From the first day Lyndal, the Campus Manager, gave us a tour, she has always been so friendly and welcoming. Now, almost half year later, we’re still very happy with the care and support.<br><br>All the educators in the Nursery Room are lovely, and Iris, the lead educator, is especially wonderful — caring, attentive and always helpful. The meals are great too!<br><br>We’re very happy with our experience and highly recommend the team.

Our little boy has been attending the nursery since he was six months old, and he absolutely loves going to Kindy. You can see it from the moment we drop him off to the moment we pick him up—he’s had a fantastic day every time.<br><br>He has built such a strong and caring relationship with Miss Iris and her team of educators. He loves playing, eating, and interacting with everyone around him, and it’s wonderful to see him so happy and excited to attend.<br><br>From the moment you walk through the door as a parent, you are greeted by staff who are positive, welcoming, and genuinely caring. They all say hello to Lewis and know him by his first name, which makes us feel like part of a community rather than just another family.<br><br>The communication from Lyndal and Zaria is exceptional. They are always prompt in responding to enquiries, concerns, or feedback, and we love receiving the regular photo updates through the app. The daily conversations with the educators about Lewis’s day, including his activities and sleep patterns, give us great peace of mind.<br><br>We are incredibly happy with our experience and would highly recommend this centre to any family looking for a nurturing, professional, and supportive environment for their child.

My son has been at little scholars since nursery and absolutely loves it here. He is now in kindy and doesn’t want to leave each day. His teachers are incredible and he is engaged all day with a massive variety of stimulating activities. Shout out to Ana and Dhruzel. Couldn’t be happier with his kindy teachers
