First Grammar Bathurst

Welcome to First Grammar Bathurst!

Thank you for considering First Grammar Bathurst for your care and education needs.

First Grammar Bathurst provides a rich, nurturing environment for children from 6 weeks to 6 years and is open from 7:00am to 6:30pm. Our qualified educators and assistants are trained in early childhood development and our centre is well-established and equipped with an abundance of resources to meet the unique needs of children in each appropriate age range.

Our centre consists of three rooms including our Nursery (0-2 yrs), Toddler (2-3 yrs) Preschool (3-5 yrs).

For your convenience, nappies are provided and nutritious meals including breakfast, morning tea, lunch and afternoon tea are prepared daily using fresh market ingredients.

Our experienced and qualified educators provide specialised programs based on the Early Years Learning Framework; aimed at preparing children for school and beyond. We have a smart board that children use independently and our preschool program includes regular local excursions at no cost to our families. The children travel to and from our excursions by private bus with seatbelts at no extra cost to our families.

We have indoor and outdoor free art areas where children can paint and create as they please. Our centre has one large yard for all children to play together, siblings can play together and support each other during outdoor play times and children learn to interact with other children of all ages. The children love to explore the outdoor area including our large sandpit and our new timber tree house which has it's own shop front, rock climbing wall, ramp and slide.

As a part of our centre's sustainability program, we have chickens and a worm farm that children are able to care for and interact with.

We are a 39 place centre and this allows us to have very strong relationships with families. We value the strength of our educational team and work closely with each other to provide an environment where children can develop to their full potential.

We incorporate primary caregiving into our daily routines to ensure our educators, families and children develop strong, trusting relationships. Families receive a day book each day directly to an app on their phone which allows them to review their child's daily activities and photos before they even arrive at the centre in the afternoon.

Flexible Hours

Our centre is offering Flexible Hours to support families to make the most out of the government's Child Care Subsidy. Consisting of nine-hour, ten-hour, and full day options, the new Flexible Hours model will give families the freedom to choose which hours best suit their individual circumstances. Families will not be limited by start and finish times like other models from competitors, and there will be no associated fees or conditions around the minimum amount of flexible hours days they are able to access.
