Kids Club Collins Street Early Learning Centre

At Kids Club Early Learning Centres, the child's needs are at the forefront of our comprehensive and engaging educational program, which is guided by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Our Educators follow a flexible routine that is reflective of each services philosophy and approaches towards play-based learning, and the curriculum is based on the practices, principles, and outcomes of the EYLF. This framework aims to achieve five overall learning outcomes, including developing a strong sense of identity, connecting with and contributing to the world, having a strong sense of well-being, becoming confident and involved learners, and being effective communicators.

Kids Club's programming and planning are centered around the EYLF, where our team work closely with families and communities to develop centre-specific programs that cater to each child's learning needs. With highly skilled and passionate Educators, premium physical environments, and carefully curated educational programs, Kids Club provides pathways of learning for children as they grow and develop into their schooling life and beyond.

Kids Club believes that every aspect of a child's development is crucial, and that each child develops at their own pace. Our centres take a personal and individual approach to each child's learning, allowing them to harness their unique learning styles while continually implementing and improving the best learning and practice in conjunction with input from industry experts and families across their centres. As the early years are crucial to a child's future, Kids Club is dedicated to delivering premium care and the best start to their future.

Kids Club is dedicated to providing high-quality care for children, taking into account their health and nutritional needs. We are committed to delivering nutritious meals that are not only delectable but also beneficial to the growth and development of children.

Our team of Chefs are selected with utmost care, based on their experience and expertise. They work closely with both families and Educators to craft fresh meals that align with the Australian Guide to Healthy Eating. We ensure that children are served a balanced menu that encompasses the five essential food groups, including grains/cereals, lean meats, dairy, fruit, and vegetables. We also cater to children with food intolerances, allergies, or cultural preferences.

All meals are prepared in our state-of-the-art, restaurant-grade kitchen by our fully qualified, in-house Chefs. Our menus are age-appropriate and designed to fuel positive growth, providing children with the right nutrients to stay focused throughout the day. We encourage family input for different recipes or cultural meals, making mealtimes a social experience that can be integrated with other key learning areas. Our menus reflect our cultural diversity and exposure while respecting the preferences, allergies, and intolerances of all children.

Our fees are inclusive of all meals, and we encourage families to inform us of any special diets, food allergies, or cultural requirements their child may have. By working together, we can ensure that every child receives the best possible start in life.

In addition to these food groups, children are also provided with plenty of water to drink throughout the day. Depending on the arrangements with families, we offer formula, milk, or breastmilk as per the child's routine and day.
