Alma Road Early Learning Centre Padstow

Alma Road Early Learning Centre was established in the year 2000. With close to 20 years operating experience it aims to provide exceptional care and education to children aged 6 weeks-6 years old.  

Our educators are knowledgeable, enthusiastic and dedicated to providing a warm, safe environment for your child to learn, grow, explore and develop their self-confidence.

They are all highly qualified and attend regular workshops to update their skills and refresh their knowledge. Our educators are all trained in first aid including asthma and anaphylaxis and come from a diverse range of cultural backgrounds. 

Play is now well recognised for its potential power and influence on a child’s development. It is through play that children learn about themselves and the world around them.

Early Childhood education is concerned with the growth and development of young children. The Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) is used in our service to extend and enrich children’s learning. It assists us to provide young children in our care with opportunities to maximise their potential to develop a foundation for future success in learning.

Children learn best when they actively participate in a number of varied, challenging and interesting learning experiences. They learn to communicate, investigate and express themselves through these learning experiences in a friendly, supportive and fail-free environment where independence and co-operation is encouraged and appropriate behaviour is reinforced.

We believe that our centre reflects an aesthetically pleasing environment that fosters a program that enhances children’s development in all EYLF outcomes and where all children are treated equally.

We are mindful of our carbon footprint and aim to be a role model to our children and community. We are working towards a sustainable future and also provide a home like environment that welcomes families and children to become an active part of our centre.

The highest quality of care is obtained through quality teaching and child care, appropriate resources, community support and through strong parental involvement.
