ABOUT ASTRA

Astra Early Learning offers high quality early learning, Kindergarten and care for children from 6 weeks to school age.

Astra Early Learning centres focus on the physical, emotional, cognitive and social development and wellbeing of children within nurturing, custom-designed environments. In line with our unique early education approach, our centres promote interaction with natural materials, indoor and outdoor spaces and optimise meaningful play-based experiences for learning development.

Every day is a new opportunity for discovery and growth at Astra Early Learning.

From beautiful open-plan spaces to art ateliers and spacious outdoor environments complete with vegetable gardens and natural play structures, each day is set to be an adventure. Through exciting learning experiences that develop academic, social, creative and critical thinking skills, Astra's programs and practices prepare children for the next stage in life.

We teach using a unique Emergent Curriculum which focuses on interest and play based learning, with a philosophy inspired by Reggio Emilia. Children learn and play in an inviting learning environment in which they feel a sense of belonging.

What the parents say

My daughter started full-time at Port Melbourne when she was six-months old. The team has played a key role in her development, her social and emotional intelligence skills, in addition to her general awareness of numbers, colours, shapes and language. We have been delighted with the brilliant team.

Parent

We feel so fortunate that our child attends a centre with such caring, dedicated, creative, responsive and inclusive Educators. Our child thrives brilliantly in the gorgeous, nurturing environment, and we feel like we're a part of the community they've gone to enormous efforts to cultivate. It's a very special place, and one of the most important relationships for our family.

Parent 

The staff always go above and beyond the call of duty and my son was lucky to have the opportunity to attend the centre. You have surrounded yourself with a wonderful group of Educators and that is why your centre is  so successful.
