Community Kids Griffith Early Education Centre highlights

Our centre proudly offers the NSW Government-approved Preschool program as part of our enhanced learning program. Our Preschool program supports your child's learning, development and well-being, to help ensure a successful transition to school. 
Our community engagement program encourages our children to interact with and discover their local community. We often welcome visits from community services and adventure outside the centre on excursions that complement and enhance their learning experiences.
Our Sustainability program helps children develop and understand the importance of embedding sustainable practices into everyday life. Children learn about recycling, conserving water, growing food, solar power and the importance of looking after and protecting our planet.

Welcome to Community Kids Griffith Early Education Centre

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Cecil Hills, Edensor Park, Bonnyrigg Heights, Griffith, Elizabeth Hills and Liverpool.

We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.

Our Learning Environments

Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:

Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
Preschool (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.

We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.

Innovative Early Learning Programs

Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:

Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
Personalised learning plans for each child.
Local school connections.

We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

About the Curriculum

“Let the child be the scriptwriter, director and the actor in their own play” - Magda Gerber

Nursery Space: 6 weeks – 2 years

Learning starts from before birth, and our Educators have created a welcoming and nurturing nursery environment where each baby feels safe to explore and discover new things - through their senses, their communication and cues (body language, facial expression and sounds) and through experimentation. On any given day you can see the nursery children engaging in all types of play including sensory play, music time, story time and more. Every day provides a brand new, exciting adventure for our babies to support their development, learning and wellbeing.

Toddler Space: 2 - 3 years

Our teachers and educators encourage the children to learn through play to help enhance their sensory-motor development. This happens through carefully planned music, dance, games, role playing and reading experiences.

On any given day the Toddlers can be seen developing their numeracy by building a tower, sorting objects, pointing and identifying shapes and patterns and participating in counting songs and games.

Children in our toddler space are encouraged to participate in group play. Group play is important as it helps our toddlers develop important social skills such as, turn-taking, developing self-confidence and emotional self-regulation. Our skilled team helps children through talking, planning and role modelling.

Preschool Space: 3 – 6 years

Preschool is a unique time for learning with peers and developing skills for later learning including confidence and curiosity, important skills for starting school. Our play-based program has school readiness at its core, encouraging active engagement in learning and supporting a range of positive developmental outcomes including resilience, independence, critical thinking and creativity.

The oral language supports literacy learning and a child’s oral language ability is the best predictor for later success in learning to read and write. Hearing the sounds within a language is the first critical step for all literacy learning. Our team supports our Preschool children's literacy development by engaging in rich discussions, reading, storytelling, dramatic play and experimentation all of which introduce new vocabulary as part of everyday conversations.

Throughout the Preschool year, children use their language to share ideas, ask questions, express themselves, and connect with peers and adults in social settings.

Social-emotional skills, including the ability to self-regulate emotions, are supported through group learning experiences. Our team supports each child’s social and emotional development by labelling and talking about emotions and supporting appropriate responses as together, they engage in new and challenging situations. Our goal in the Preschool year is to prepare children and families for a smooth transition to primary school.

Meet the team

Hi my name is Nichole, and I am the Centre Manager here at Community Kids Griffith. I started my early education career in 2015 and have been working at Community Kids Griffith Early Learning Centre since then.

I currently have a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care.

My inspiration for going into the Early Childhood sector was my daughter. wanted to inspire and pave the way for inclusive practices for all no matter abilities, age, race, or gender. During the last 8 years, I have worked in many roles across the service. I love that each day is different; each child is unique; and each family brings with them new experiences and outlooks on the world around them. The relationships built on trust, mutual respect and nurturing in a safe environment are so important for children.

In my time in the sector, I have learnt that children are capable and possess the ability to make choices for their future, learning, and rights over autonomy. Children are inquisitive and are natural learners. I am guided by play-based learning, which provides opportunities for children to immerse all their senses into learning about the world around them, and about themselves.

Early Childhood education settings are an extension of the home. Having qualified Educators and Teachers provide rich curriculum-based learning through play and intentional teachings allows children to participate and carve out their own learning journey. It assists children in social, cognitive, gross, and fine motor skills.

At Community Kids Griffith, we have a dedicated, passionate team of educators and teachers who are committed to providing quality care and education to all children. We are always looking for ways to improve their practices, deepening relationships with families and collaborating with the broader community to provide rich meaningful experiences for the children.

We acknowledge that each family is different and has different needs for support. Regular communications are sent to keep families updated, promoting our open-door policy, and encouraging family involvement. At Community Kids Griffith we appreciate the time it takes to develop and continue to foster good relationships.
