ABOUT US
Our Vision
We aspire to provide a safe & nurturing environment that brings out the best in every child through exploring curiosity, creativity, and connections. Our educators strive to enrich young minds with the foundations of lifelong learning, from compassion to problem-solving life skills. By integrating modern teaching practices with timeless values, we hope to empower children to reach their full potentials and shape a brighter future.
Who We Are
As a family-owned and operated centre focused on early childhood education, we provide a safe, engaging environment that makes use of The Montessori Method to encourage self-directed learning and creativity.
Our centre offers six thoughtfully equipped rooms for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. Our spacious outdoor area includes a playground and sandpit where little ones enjoy regular playtime and physical activity. We are fully compliant with government regulations, adhering to the National Quality Framework (NQF) and the Victorian Early Years Learning Framework (VEYLDF). Your child's safety and development are our top priorities.
We understand the importance of a holistic education, and our commitment extends beyond the classroom. Engaging with the community is at the heart of what we do as a local childcare, evident through our community garden and regularly-held family friendly events such as a Father's Day Barbeque, Easter Egg Hunt, & Christmas Zumbini Showcase.
Our goal is for every child that attends Ormond to carry forward our love of learning, respect for others, and skills to shine in their future education. Curious? See our FAQ for common questions. We invite you to visit us and discover all our centre has to offer!
Our Team
Welcome to the heart and soul of our organisation - the incredible individuals who make up our team.
Xplor Education Parent Communication App
At our center, we leverage Xplor, an innovative education management platform designed to elevate early childhood learning. It enables us to capture real-time observations, and the parental engagement features include personalised updates, direct educator access, photo sharing and transparent incident reporting, and parents receive a higher level of insight into their child’s time and milestones at our centre. The app makes all aspects of early education more streamlined, from attendance, to billing and compliance.
With Xplor, we have found the perfect solution to nurture the crucial bond between families, educators and children during these vital early years. It is at the core of how we facilitate engaging learning, to help our children bloom into curious, confident individuals.
