Facilities
Better by Design
Our campus-style learning spaces have been designed by award-winning architect Sarah Scott, author of Architecture for Children. Sarah has travelled the world researching and specialising in design of childcare and early learning centres.
Our childcare facilities embody our philosophy of fostering a love of learning in early childhood education. To help children learn and become their best selves, we have designed small, focus-group style learning spaces throughout the entire centre. This layout encourages children to transition between rooms multiple times a day, allowing them to leave their ‘work projects’ for next time. By doing so, we teach children that their ‘work’ is meaningful and doesn’t need to be packed away.
We also use this as an opportunity to extend children’s focus, as these projects can take many forms and can successfully go on for weeks. Having the early learning centre designed like a primary school also helps prepare children for primary school. Children who begin school confidently are more likely to have more positive outcomes throughout the educational journey.
Physical environments play a huge role in children’s behaviour and learning processes.
Our generous and carefully crafted indoor and outdoor play areas encourage creativity, learning and social, physical and self-connections. Our purpose-built classrooms are built with a devotion to dramatic play, scientific exploration, and constructive and sensory play. Our warm and cosy Library has intimate spaces for children to read on their own, as well as an interactive element where children can borrow books (to read at home and consolidate their learning).

Our childcare facilities include a well-equipped Construction Room where children are encouraged to draw their plans before cutting, gluing and nailing their unique creations.
Our Lego Room follows the same principle of a specialised area, for small groups of children to have access to all the Classic Lego, Duplo and Robotic Lego they could ever need! With child-sized workbenches and quiet spaces there are no limits to what a child can create.
Through these interactive childcare facilities, we are able to provide children with both group and individual early learning experiences in the areas that they are most interested in, whilst also providing an immersive window into the big wide world.
To assist families with further support, we have rooms for speech and occupational therapists to use and a hair salon to help take the pressure off family weekends.
Our early learning centre facilities have been designed to include:
- Dedicated outdoor areas with garden beds, sandpits, real trees, grass and shrubs
- An interactive LEGO®room
- Highly secure Centres with swipe card access only
- Zoned climate control
- THRASS literacy area
- A state-of-the-art library with a ‘book nest’ for quiet family reading
- A Piona room
The outdoor areas offer a blend of covered and open spaces, ensuring children can enjoy their outdoor experience regardless of weather conditions. As part of quality early learning, children can explore a custom-designed climbing area featuring rock and rope climbing, along with a castle and cubby for more exciting and challenging play. The expansive wet and dry sandpit, surrounded by sandstone, is crafted to provide children with a beach-like sand experience.
