Wanslea Nursery School and Early Learning Centre (Bower Education)
Wanslea Nursery School and Early Learning Centre (Bower Education) Centre overview
Wanslea Nursery and Early Learning Centre is situated in beautiful Kingswood, in a large and spacious Federation Villa. Wanslea takes its name from the Women’s Australian National Services (W.A.N.S.) of South Australia, which was established in 1941. According to the history books, this service was initiated by a ‘group of gallant women’ during WW2 to provide services to women and children in need of support. Wanslea evolved as a childcare service operated by Anglicare in the 1980’s up until 2021 when it was purchased by Bower Education. A renovation of the property is planned for mid-2022 that will see the Centre nurtured and refreshed, including newly landscaped gardens and play spaces.
Wanslea welcomes children between the ages of six months to five years old, providing a caring and exciting environment in which they can play, learn, explore, and flourish. Our philosophy and pedagogy is inspired by the Reggio Emilia Approach whereby children are respected as capable, curious individuals with their own unique learning styles and passions. We believe that children have a right to high quality care, education, and play based learning experiences.
We look forward to welcoming your family and invite you to book a tour with us at your convenience.

My 10 month old and I have been attending the free Play & Learn sessions for a few months at Wanslea. Both the centre and the director, Erin, are lovely. Erin set up great activities for the babies, and she often gave us ideas for different things we could do at home. I enjoyed getting to know some of the other mums and babies too! If we were still living close by, we would have loved to enrol our daughter at Wanslea. Read more
