About The Grove Academy - Edmondson Park 2

Edmondson Park 2 is our second childcare centre in the Edmondson Park community, thoughtfully designed with children and families at its heart. This brand-new, architecturally designed centre follows a similar size and layout to our original Edmondson Park centre. Expansive outdoor areas and a beautiful natural play space give children, right through to their preschool years, the freedom to explore, play and grow. The centre is close to local amenities, including the train station.

Get To Know Us

Programs

Programs

At The Grove Academy, it's in our nature to nurture. We welcome children from 6 weeks to 5 years, with rooms for Babies, Toddlers, Junior Preschoolers and Preschool. Our play-based education program is inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach and shaped by children's interests. Each month, educators plan learning experiences around what children are curious about. Our Grove Theory nurtures the whole child, through Grove Mind, Heart, Body, Compass and Expression. It covers problem-solving, friendships, wellbeing and nutrition, nature play and sustainability, and creative expression. Every family has access to our in-house Speech Pathologists, who are based in each centre about one day a week. We provide five nutritious meals each day.

Kindergarten/Preschool Programs

Kindergarten/Preschool Programs

Our Preschool room (4–5 years) is a launchpad for lifelong learning. Learning there is hands-on and play-based, so children are ready for school socially, emotionally and cognitively. Our School Readiness program covers:

  • early literacy, including the Reading Eggs program
  • science and early numeracy
  • movement skills and healthy habits
  • social and emotional development
  • creative arts
  • independence and life skills, such as Lunch Box Week

Through our exclusive partnership with Ranger Jamie, children heading to school take part in hands-on 60-minute STEM incursions. We complete a School Readiness Checklist for each child twice a year. We also work closely with local primary schools and provide a Transition to School Statement.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

Our custom TGA Parent Portal app was designed by TGA for TGA families, and it keeps you close to your child's day. In the app you'll find:

  • daily observations, photos and personalised "My Day" reflections
  • a Daily Journal and daily chart, covering meals, sleep and toileting
  • announcements and upcoming events
  • live chat

Each child also has an individual Learning Journey that celebrates their progress over time. You're welcome to chat with educators at drop-off or pick-up, or to contact us by phone, email or Portal chat. Before your child's first day, we organise an orientation visit. Our Family Relations team can help with your account and the Child Care Subsidy (CCS).

Safety

Safety

At The Grove Academy, every child has the right to be safe and feel safe. Our educators work in teams and share responsibility for each child's care. Our rooms are designed for clear visibility and active supervision, and we use CCTV in shared areas. Every centre has secure entry systems and visitor verification. We take a zero-tolerance approach to child abuse and neglect. All staff go through comprehensive recruitment and screening and mandatory child protection training, with annual refreshers. We monitor Working with Children Checks on an ongoing basis. We follow the National Model Code for taking images or videos of children, and personal phones are not allowed in learning environments.

We have had such a wonderful experience at The Grove Academy Edmondson Park 2. Our daughter has been attending for the past few months.<br>As a working mum, it means so much knowing she’s in such caring hands. A huge thank you to Carissa and her amazing team for creating such a warm, loving, and nurturing environment. I’d also like to thank all of my daughter’s teachers for the kindness, patience, and genuine care they show her.<br><br>Knowing she’s well looked after while I’m at work gives me so much peace of mind. We truly appreciate everything you do and highly recommend The Grove Academy in Edmondson Park, family looking for a caring and supportive childcare centre. ❤️

I can’t thank Mel and her incredible team at Grove enough for the love, care, and dedication they’ve shown my children over the years. My son has several severe allergies, and they’ve always gone above and beyond to make sure he’s safe and cared for. The attention to detail and genuine concern they show has given me such peace of mind — I truly trust them more than anyone else when it comes to my kids. My daughter also went to Grove, and both my children have absolutely thrived there. The educators are kind, nurturing, and passionate about what they do. They don’t just look after the children — they nurture them, teach them, and celebrate them. What makes Grove so special is that they’ve made us feel like family. It’s rare to find a place where you know your children are not only safe but truly loved. I would recommend Grove to anyone looking for a childcare centre that genuinely cares, supports, and welcomes your family as their own.
