Guppys Early Learning Centre - Forestdale

Guppy's Early Learning Centres provide accredited kindergarten programs for children in the year before they start primary school. Led by qualified teachers and guided by the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guideline, our play-based curriculum ensures children develop the necessary skills and a lifelong love for learning.

With experienced educators, our programs are tailored to different learning styles and incorporate innovative approaches. We value family engagement and maintain open communication, offering flexible options to accommodate diverse schedules.

At Guppy's, we believe in strong partnerships with families and the community. We actively involve families in our programs and decision-making, sharing information and seeking feedback for continuous improvement.

Guppy's vision is to provide exceptional childcare through personalised service founded on respect for children, their families, and educators. We adhere to the guiding principles of the National Quality Framework, including the Early Years Learning Framework, My Time Our Place Framework, and the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guideline.

We create a safe and secure environment that allows children to develop uniquely through exploration and discovery. Our programs are designed to reflect each child's individual needs and interests, encouraging diverse forms of learning, self-expression, critical thinking, and problem-solving.

We value and embrace the diversity of all children, regardless of their cultural background, disability, gender, beliefs, or attitudes. Every child is treated equally, and we celebrate their efforts and skills. Our goal is to enhance children's self-esteem, foster positive relationships, and equip them with life skills for active participation in the community.

Multiculturalism is woven into our centre's fabric, where we share and appreciate different cultures and beliefs without bias or discrimination. We provide fresh, culturally appropriate, and nutritionally balanced meals while promoting safe food handling and hygiene practices. We prioritise sustainability, incorporating nature-based teaching and fostering an understanding of sustainable practices among children.

Our team is dedicated to continuous improvement and staying abreast of new insights and concepts in early childhood development. We actively engage families and the community, sharing information, seeking feedback, and working collaboratively to enhance our service.

At Guppy's, we are committed to providing a secure, nurturing, and inclusive environment where each child can thrive, supported by strong partnerships with families and the community.

At Guppy's, we value the partnership with families and strive to create collaborative environments that promote active participation. To enhance communication between parents and educators, we utilise the Xplor Home App. Xplor provides parents and guardians with easy access to vital information, including daily updates, learning journeys, and centre news. It's a convenient platform where policies, procedures, and forms are readily available.

Additionally, the Xplor Home App allows you to access your child's individual profile, which our staff diligently maintains. This profile offers a monitored record of your child's learning and outcomes, ensuring you stay informed about their progress.
