Where We Grow ELC Craigieburn

Our Craigieburn early learning centre has been designed to grow and inspire little minds. The outdoor areas have been constructed with nature play in mind and includes natural elements.

Our centre cook is passionate about providing healthy, delicious and nutritious meals every day. We use local produce where possible and tailor meals plans for children with specific food requirements. Our team of educators are highly qualified, providing nurturing care and education for babies through to preschool aged children.

We are a provider of the Kindergarten Program and offer an extensive school readiness program. Alongside our play-based curriculum we also offer a range of extra-curricular activities which are selected from the children’s interests, these could include pottery, karate, yoga and cooking classes.

Our educators incorporate a range of developmental approaches and theories to ensure that the uniqueness of our approach come together collaboratively with the uniqueness of our children. This collaboration is the foundation upon which our developmental curriculums, projects and environments are built. We encourage parental participation and believe that learning potential is maximised when parents are actively involved in their child’s education. We encourage feedback and parents are always welcome to spend time and help in our centre’s daily routines.

Our centres enhance the mantra of being, belonging and becoming, and are places that growth and learning walk hand in hand. Children are shown how they can be the architects of their own learning. Once a child realises this, they begin to tread their own path toward holistic development and understanding.

At Where We Grow we utilise the National Early Years Learning Framework to assist your child’s development. This framework focuses on the following goals:

• Identity
• Connections in their world
• Wellbeing
• Confidence and involvement in learning
• Communication

We understand the importance of education in the formative years of a child’s life. Our classrooms act as a doorway to further development, where learning is encouraged anywhere, at any time. Our educators encourage parental participation in the care of their children through decision making and involvement in a consultative and advisory manner. Learning at Where We Grow, will instil in your child important personal qualities, and encourage them to become intrinsically motivated, innately curious and open-minded young learners. What your child learns at Where We Grow, will carry with them for life.
