About the curriculum
 
					About the curriculum
6 weeks - 12 months
Their passionate and experienced Educators work closely with families to ensure each baby’s routine is personalised to meet their individual needs. The children take part in activities within a stimulating learning environment. They enjoy group time during their music and movement program, or visits from special guests. Throughout the day, the babies enjoy taking part in songs and storytelling, sensory activities, and messy play in the garden. Under the guidance of their Educators, the babies enjoy their meals and snacks with their friends. During Nursery nap time, they are taken into the sleeping area where gentle music and a twinkling night sky encourages them to rest.
2 years - 3 years
The Educators recognise that routines for toddlers are an important opportunity for learning. Performing daily, predictable tasks while having fun is a chance for toddlers to build their self-confidence, communication and social skills. The toddlers enjoy a daily rhythmic routine which assists them to transition between activities throughout the day. They take part in activities such as music, yoga, cooking, painting, drawing, singing and dancing, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) based activities and the centre’s sustainability program. The toddlers also enjoy mealtimes with their friends and Educators.
4 years - 6 years
The Educators ensure the children's environment is fun and inviting, encouraging quality play-based experiences to help them develop memory skills, language and self-regulation, supporting the transition to school and academic learning later in life. The children enjoy yoga, visits from special guests, and regular excursions to local parklands. Mealtimes are an opportunity for the children to enjoy social interactions with their friends and Educators, as well as learn about body awareness and nutrition. Practicing independence, the children help to set up, serve, and clear away their dining area. Throughout the day, the Preschool children engage in activities that include literacy and numeracy games, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities to encourage children to think creatively and critically. Many of the children particularly enjoy the outdoor adventures around the bike track or expanding their green thumb knowledge, through cultivating the edible flower and vegetable gardens that provide countless hours of eco-education and fun.

Our son has the best days here, and the educators are always helpful and caring towards the children. Not to mention that fabulous food they eat on the daily. It's comforting to know you're leaving your child in safe hands.

Glynde has been a wonderful environment for my niece and nephew.

Disappointed with Ongoing Issues at Green Leaves Glynde Our children have attended Green Leaves Glynde since it first opened. While we initially had high hopes, our experience over time has been quite disappointing. One major concern has been the high turnover of staff — especially the dedicated and caring educators who our children bonded with. It’s disheartening to see good teachers leave so frequently, which has affected the consistency and quality of care. We also noticed safety issues, such as educators cleaning floors while children were still in the room, which is clearly unsafe. There were several incidents involving our children that the staff were unaware of, raising concerns about supervision and communication. Another issue was the lack of adequate and nutritious late snacks, which left our children hungry and unhappy. Despite raising these concerns multiple times with the centre director, we only received dismissive responses from the assistant director, and no meaningful action was ever taken. Ultimately, we decided to move our children to a more established and well-reputed early learning centre. Since making the switch, our kids are happier and more settled. We hope Green Leaves Glynde takes these concerns seriously and improves their standards for the sake of other families. Read more

We absolutely loved everything about Green leaves at Glynde. Bec runs an amazing team of educators. The facility was always welcoming and a safe place. During our 6 months at Glynde our son became toilet trained and no longer requires a dummy. Both our children improve with communication skills, creative play and social skills. Read more

Our sons started at Green Leaves Glynde a couple of months ago and they have settled in seamlessly - it’s like they have been here forever. They’re so happy and thriving. The centre is clean and well looked after and the food is nutritious and has lots of variety. The educators put so much time and effort into the activities they organise for the children and incorporate the children’s own interests. The outdoors area is wonderful with lots of space, greenery and lots of variety of outdoor activities. Both of our children have both learned so much since attending and love going. Nothing is too much trouble for any of the staff - Bec and Trish lead from the top and it shows! Communication is always easy, transparent and friendly. Our youngest developed a fever this afternoon and his educator Ivana stayed after her finishing time, to be with him until I got there because she was all he wanted and we couldn’t be more appreciative for that level of care and dedication Read more
Thank you for your inspiring review, Sarah! One of the most rewarding parts of being a Green Leaves team member are the opportunities we have to create nurturing relationships with the children (and their families) and watching them flourish into lovely little people 😊. It’s heart-warming to hear that your sons always leaves us with a smile on his dial! Warm regards, Rebecca – Green Leaves Glynde Centre Director
