Pathway to School
Our 3-year-old Long day care and 4-year-old Kindergarten programs nurture young learners as they gain confidence, make decisions, and develop emotional strength and social connections.

They also explore healthy choices, personal responsibility, and creative thinking in an engaging and supportive environment.
We provide inquiry-based curriculum through play - across exciting learning areas, including:
- STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths)
- Language and Literacy
- Active and Involved Citizens
- Nature Play and Sustainability
- The Arts
- Health and Wellbeing
With a balance of small and whole-group experiences, both indoors and outdoors, children are encouraged to wonder, discover, and grow - preparing them for a bright future ahead!

Our talented in-house chef, Selena, prepares nutritious and delicious meals tailored to each child’s dietary needs and cultural preferences, often using fresh produce from our veggie garden. Children absolutely love her flavourful chicken curry and wholesome muesli slice!
Selena also leads fun cooking lessons that inspire children to explore food, often linking these activities to their current learning programs. These hands-on experiences teach valuable cooking skills, foster a love for healthy eating, and encourage children to discover new flavours.

The staff are amazing; so kind and caring, and really take the time to get to know and connect with each child. My daughter has a couple educators on her "best friend list", which is not an easy list to get onto 🤣. She loves going to Kindy, and my son loves Junior Kindy. We barely finish saying goodbye to him before he's off playing with friends. So grateful to all the staff there for caring for my children how they do! Definitely recommend 👌🏼 Read more

We couldn’t be happier with the care and support our children receive at Oak on Jellicoe. From day one, the educators have taken the time to truly know each of our children, making them feel valued and nurtured. The centre has always provided such a warm and supportive environment, and as parents we feel completely confident knowing our children are so well cared for. Our eldest son has been attending since he was a baby and is now thriving in Kindy. He’s made great friends and always talks about his educators so positively, which really shows how connected and happy he feels at Oak on Jellicoe. He has loved the experiences the centre provides, particularly the chance to explore emergency service vehicles and go on fun off-campus excursions this year. Our youngest son joined the nursery at the start of the year, and it has been so reassuring to see the same high level of care, attention, and genuine affection extended to him. The educators are thoughtful, attentive, and create a space where he feels safe, happy, and engaged. We are so grateful to have found such a positive, caring centre where both our children have thrived. It really feels like an extended family. Read more

We’ve been with Oak on Jellicoe for nearly 3 years with both of our boys, and it has been such a positive experience. The staff are warm, professional, and truly care about the kids’ wellbeing and development. A special mention to Ms Ash and Ms Mikaela, who were Oliver’s educators in the Kindy room last year – their support and guidance helped him thrive and grow with so much confidence. And a big thank you to Ms Rhonda and Ms Joy who are currently Charlie’s educators in Pre-Kindy. They have been incredible in helping us through the toilet training stage and navigating the challenges of “threenager” meltdowns with so much patience and understanding. We are so grateful for the nurturing environment the whole team provides. Oak on Jellicoe feels like an extension of our family, and I would highly recommend it to any parents looking for a caring and supportive childcare centre. Read more
