Cherry Bridge Station Austral is an early learning and childcare centre that offers long daycare and a comprehensive preschool and school readiness program. Located on Fifteenth Avenue at the heart of the community, we support our families by providing exceptional quality childcare that is accessible and affordable. We are 100% Australian owned and take pride in supporting our families on each child’s unique educational journey.

CBS Austral is designed with kids in mind. Our centre is homely and bright, with comfy, modern spaces for learning and play. There are separate spaces for resting, sleeping and toileting, which helps your child in their daily routine. There’s room to run outdoors where the playground features a large undercover verandah, shade sails, sand pits, gardens, herb garden, and compost, as well as lots of fun structures made specially for imaginative exploration. Play areas also offer room for quiet play and activities for every age group.

Our 'All Meals Included' policy is based on a firm foundation of setting up good food habits – for life. All meals are prepared onsite with our own cook - the kitchen is the heart of the centre. We use quality ingredients such as lean meats and chicken, lots of fresh vegetables and fruits. CBS Austral is a nut-free zone, and we do not use frozen, packaged, re-heated meals. We proudly meet the dietary needs of all families, including food allergies and vegetarian meal options. All our meals are even Halal.

We know that as parents, you are keen to know all about your child’s experiences throughout the day. The Cherry Bridge Station App, offers access to real-time notifications to keep up with your child’s daily eating, sleeping and play routines, every day.

Our exceptional staff of caring professionals truly love what they do. With the National Quality Framework as our foundation, CBS Austral offers a curated suite of early education programs that nurture young minds, across all stages of growth, development and differing ability. Our specialised programs are constantly evolving, to meet the requirements of the Early Years Learning Framework and to set up a learning journey that will help your child to grow and thrive.
