A big thank you to Miss Poonam and all the wonderful educators for the love and care you’ve shown my daughter this year. It definitely doesn’t go unnoticed, and I’m so grateful. Thank you for helping her learn, grow and feel loved while in your care! 🥰❤️

About Bluebird Early Education Berwick

Welcome to Bluebird Early Education Berwick, where we offer top-notch care and education for children aged 6 weeks to 5 years. Nestled in the heart of the new Alira Estate, our 100-place educational service is designed to be a vibrant hub for our community.

Our purpose-built facility is a testament to thoughtful design, featuring inviting spaces like our art, music, and mindfulness areas. With sprawling rooftop gardens, children have the opportunity to explore and learn amidst permanent structures and flourishing gardens filled with herbs, vegetables, and citrus trees.

Within our service, we house 6 specialized studios tailored to provide high-quality educational experiences for each age group. For our youngest, the 0-2-year spaces offer cozy cot studios equipped with comfortable breastfeeding chairs.

Food plays a pivotal role in our approach. Our kitchen, overseen by a talented in-house chef, collaborates with Nutrition Australia to create meals that meet the nutritional needs of growing children. We believe in teaching kids about food and nutrition through interactive cooking classes, fostering a sense of accomplishment and understanding.

Community is at the heart of our values. We foster connections with local schools, organize excursions to nearby shops, and host family events to build strong bonds. We offer diverse experiences for families, including celebratory events, enhancing the sense of belonging within our community.

Embedded within our curriculum are enriching programs spanning language, music, sports, and sustainability. Our goal is to cultivate confident learners within a nurturing environment, and we're excited to embark on this journey with your child. Welcome to our Bluebird Berwick community!

As a Centre Manager with over 6 years of experience, my personal philosophy is based on providing a safe, inclusive, and stimulating environment where every child is provided the opportunity to thrive.

I believe that early childhood education is foundational to lifelong learning and development, and it is our responsibility to provide a nurturing space where children feel valued, respected, and encouraged to explore.

I work alongside my team to ensure we create a trusted community where children are excited to learn and grow, educators are passionate and supported, and families feel welcomed and involved in their children’s early education journey.

About the curriculum

About the curriculum

The Kindergarten program is a complete cycle of each individual child’s development. Educators see and learn the ways children take on new knowledge and adapt their teaching practices to cater for them. The environment is busy and forever changing as learning evolves. You’ll often find the Kinder children out at Forest School, where the natural environment is the teacher.

Through many literacy games, active outdoor play, and day-to-day activities, Educators strive to get each child ready for their first year of school, providing them with the emotional, physical and intellectual support.

Qualified Teachers constantly critically reflect on their curriculum, ensuring that it’s at its best for the diversity within the centre. A home away from home, where learning takes flight with the little Bluebirds.

Centre philosophy

Centre philosophy

Forest School Program - Each week the children will travel to a local national park or bushland area, where they will be able to play and explore freely, under the discrete observation of the educators.

Kindy of Kindness - Initiatives may include visits to aged care facilities, baking for the local emergency services, and fund-raising projects to assist charity groups.

Sustainability Program - By taking part in daily sustainable living practices including recycling, composting, worm farming, energy and water saving, the children develop a working understanding of how they can play a vital role in protecting the environment.

Community connections - By forging strong community ties they enable the children to develop a deep sense of belonging and connection to the world around them, construct an understanding of how society works, and begin to recognise and respect the shared values that unite us.

Technology focus - Technology is introduced through a play based approach. Educators role model and assist children to gain new knowledge and to better understand concepts through the designated computer programs. 

Health & Nutrition

Health & Nutrition

The centre believes in a hands-on approach to teaching children about food, which is why cooking classes are offered as part of the curriculum.

Children are encouraged to help out where they can, whether that’s chopping fruit for smoothies or pouring them out for everyone.

Food is used as a way to teach children about identifying their needs and attending to them. Children can access drink stations and fruit bowls for a quick snack.

Took a tour. Loved the place. Organised for staff to have training from a nutricia nurse for my son. They kept rescheduling the training session, sometimes not even letting us know it was cancelled in the first place. By March, I asked for updates, I first toured in early Jan.. The update was they had the training that was provided by the nurse, which was organised by my son’s dietician.. but, there were no more spots and he would need to be on a waitlist instead. I had asked to enrol straight away while waiting for them to have the training.. They said I could only enrol after training. Why would you have training if you didn’t save a spot for my child ? Obviously I was going to enrol him and I let bluebird know I was. Because of their cancelling of the training three times, and not updating my child’s care team and I we wasted from Jan till March.. just to be told they had trained staff and didn’t keep his spot. Very poor, and certainly I doubt this is legal. Very disappointed. Places are hard enough to find in this situation as it is. But messing around.. it’s low.

Our son has been attending Bluebird for the past 2.5 years and everyone has always been so warm, welcoming and lovely to deal with. The educators in the Gumtree Room are all amazing, caring and attentive, and we feel so lucky to have them looking after our son.<br><br>A special mention to Poonam, who has been absolutely incredible. She has played such a big part in helping our son settle in, and her kindness, patience and genuine care have made such a difference to both him and us as parents. She is always communicating with us, keeping us informed and going above and beyond to make sure he feels safe, happy and supported. It’s clear how much she genuinely cares and we couldn’t be more grateful to have her as part of our son’s journey.<br><br>We are so thankful to the entire Bluebird team for everything they do, and especially to Poonam for the extra love, care and attention she gives our son. ❤️
