TGA Belfield is such a warm and nurturing centre. As a first time mum it’s been so reassuring knowing that my son is being looked after so well and shown so much love. All the staff are amazing, especially his educators, miss Mariah, miss Zebi and miss Kamo 🤍

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

For our older children, our Ready, Set, Grow school readiness program builds confidence, independence and the skills they need for their next big adventure. Our resource-rich environments encourage learning through play. Because every child is unique, we work closely with families to set personalised learning goals and celebrate each child's progress. Children heading to school also take part in hands-on 60-minute STEM incursions through our exclusive partnership with Ranger Jamie. We complete a School Readiness Checklist twice a year, 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 were supposed to stay with Belfield temporarily as were awaiting the opening of the other TGA location. However, we loved the centre and my son already built strong connections and attachments to educators here so we decided to stay with them permanently. The centre itself is beautiful, clean and modern. Great Management Team led by Zeinab, Daniela and Jess! We felt very welcomed and truely cared by everyone in this centre.<br><br>I also liked that they actually care about the comfort of the child. In our case they gladly agreed to transfer my 21months old son to 2-3 room earlier as he showed a lot more interest in that room. And omg within one month he started talking so much. From few words to the actual sentences. Big thanks to Swati, Miriam and Korin and the various and interesting activities they run for the kids!<br><br>I have another 9 months old in the baby room. He is still adjusting to the new environment, and can be quite moody sometimes but the team is doing their best to make him settle and feel safe. Mariah, Kamo and Zebi are just so wonderful with the kids and truely loving them.<br><br>Also huge thanks to the in house chef Gloria who prepares all the yum dishes, I can see my son always takes additional servings, something which is not very common at home 😁<br><br>I also love the updates, photos and communications I receive through their app its very convenient for a parent.<br><br>Without no doubt I am so glad that we chose TGA and in particular Belfield centre and the Team! Its my first experience with the childcare for my kids and i hope will be the Only one. I am sure my babies are in great hands ❤️
