Welcome to Blue Gum Cottage Children's Centre

Welcome to Blue Gum Cottage Children’s Centre!

Blue Gum Cottage Children’s Centre offers a cosy and homelike environment based on respect and valuing every child’s voice. Catering to children aged 6 weeks to 5 years, the community based centre fosters strong relationships with the families so they can best support every child to thrive. The educators take a holistic approach to ensure each child develops important intellectual, emotional, physical and social skills.

The spacious outdoor play area is filled with bright and colourful equipment to engage the children as they play. The area is covered with a large shade sail to allow for all weather play. The age-appropriate space challenges the children to develop their gross motor skills as they learn about nature and connecting with their peers. 

Indoors, the learning spaces are well-equipped to cater to different learning styles and activities. The children can paint, draw, play and participate in cooking classes as well as a range of other activities designed to meet the individual needs of the children. 

Located directly opposite Dr Walter Park in Chifley, the centre is just a short walk from Anzac Parade bus stops with street parking also available. Why not book a tour of this homelike and nurturing centre today?

Programs

The program at Blue Gum Cottage Children's Centre is holistic and engaging, making the most of both the indoor and outdoor learning spaces. To complement this, the educators also plan regular excursions, such as visits to the Malabar Library or Symbio Wildlife Park. The centre also hosts incursions with community groups for cultural celebrations and community activities.

The preschool children participate in a school readiness program that helps prepare them for the transition to big school. The educators use the Jolly Phonics Program to help the children to learn the alphabet and other early literacy skills.

Activities at the centre include art club, cooking classes, munch and move, gardening, yoga and more. The children also learn about the community through the centre street library and the Generation Club, welcoming visitors from a local retirement village to the centre.
