Grassroots Early Learning Centre was established March 2020. As owner / operators we are passionate about developing a learning environment which reflects the childrens interests.
Our philosophy is influenced by Rudolf Steiner. Essentially learning is through understanding our surroundings and caring for it. The addition of a farm has been extremely successful. Here children learn how to care for animals with daily tasks. Our animals include: A Puppy 'Benji', Guinea Pigs and Chickens. Each year we have the Henny Penny Hatching program. Children get to watch the eggs incubate and hatch.
Weekly inclusions in our fee's are:
- 1st Fives Rugby and Happy Feet.
- Meals are prepared fresh daily onsite.
- One flat rate fee. Includes: nappies, meals and regular shows which visit the centre.
- So come and take a tour of our centre we look forward to meeting you!

Love the animal interactions - that is a huge positive for us. The educators in the rooms are fabulous. Only reason I can't give 5 stars is because the director K is very cold, wouldn't look up from the desk when we walked in and is just not friendly. Apart from that love the centre. Read more
