• School Preparation Program: children learn from the National Early Learning Years Framework as well as the National School Curriculum. 
• Yoga: children take part in regular yoga sessions to increase their flexibility and teach mindfulness.
• Sports programs: children enjoy their weekly sports, where educators build their coordination and confidence. 
• Cooking experiences: the children love learning about food and preparing healthy meals and snacks with the in-house chef. 
• Sustainability: children learn about growing and harvesting food, water conservation, recycling and composting. 
• Music experiences: children can enjoy all types of music from classical to contemporary, while also singing and dancing to express themselves. 
• Art experiences: children are offered a wide variety of materials to explore their creativity. They can enjoy paint, clay, collage, drawing, and printing with their friends.

Communication & support for families: The centre prides itself on its relationships with families, providing verbal feedback daily, sharing 'Daily Reflection' emails and monthly newsletters. Parents are offered the chance to enjoy regular 'Date Nights' where the children are cared for as a free service. There is also an option to purchase family meals from the chef, to take home on busy nights. 

Homelike, natural environments: Inside and out, the centre is resourced to feel like home, encouraging children to feel safe and secure within familiar environments. All of the design elements, play equipment, furniture and resources are natural colours and materials.

Food, health & nutrition: The centre's food, health and nutrition philosophy is focused on fresh, locally sourced, seasonal ingredients that provide variety and new tastes for the children. The onsite chef cooks meals from scratch, with the children being involved in many elements of food preparation, including baking, serving and hygiene.

Community connection: Children engage with local schools; proudly display some of their artwork in the nearby park; they bake morning tea for local emergency services; they visit aged care facilities, send them messages and make video calls. Local, young families are welcome to join the centre's free weekly activities.

Highly experienced Founders: with over 30 years of Early Learning experience, Founders Kat and Peter personally design each centre and are actively involved in leading a team of passionate and experienced educators to create the unique Paisley Park culture.

There are five rooms at Paisley Park Prospect. Each child receives tailored programs and experiences to meet their individual learning and development needs.

Darwin Room: 6 weeks – 12 months

Named after acclaimed natural scientist Charles Darwin, who spent most of his life exploring the diversity of living things with particular interest in adaptation. Similarly, children of this age are curious and readily adjust as they transition to a new environment. Parents can feel confident knowing that their Educators are there to guide them as they become increasingly curious about their world, introducing experiences and supporting them to explore new surroundings and establish new relationships with carers and friends.

Mozart Room:1 year – 2 years

Famous for creating piano concertos and symphonies, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart spent most of his life mastering music that depicted charm and expressed humour, joy and sorrow. The exploration of such emotions is commonplace for children at this age as they begin to exercise their independence and socialise with like-minded friends.  This environment is full of sounds and textures, designed to complement children’s learning.  Age-appropriate experiences and resources are provided to support children as they explore and meet developmental milestones.

Edison Room: 2 years - 3 years

Thomas Edison rose from humble beginnings to develop technology and make his inventions widely available and useful.  Invention is commonplace for children of this age as they become inquisitive and exploratory in their place.  Providing an abundant selection of resources within varied environments allows the imaginative creators to push boundaries and showcase their learning every minute of the day.  Interacting with their peers teaches them social skills such as turn taking and making a friend.

Picasso Room: 3 years – 4 years

Remembered for his contributions to the art world, Pablo Picasso was a dynamic painter, sculptor, printmaker, and ceramicist who experimented with many art styles and themes in his long-lasting career.  Children in this room are encouraged to experience and push boundaries, using their intelligence and creativity. They are supported by their Educators to discover their incredible capacity to persist when challenged.

Einstein Room: 4 years – 5 years

Famous for his theory of relativity, Albert Einstein was a theoretical physicist whose intellectual achievements crowned him as the greatest genius who ever lived.  Children of this age have rapid cognitive development and play becomes more complex. The children in this room want to try new experiences, seek to become self-reliant and want to become independent decision makers.  Educators support this energy and independence by providing experiences to challenge thinking and this includes participation within the School Preparation Program.

The nutritional philosophy of Paisley Park Prospect is as follows: 

Best quality produce: the centre believes that healthy eating means using locally sourced, seasonal ingredients which keep children nourished and energised. The seasonal menus are designed in conjunction with well-known chef, Miguel Maestre. 

Whole foods cooked from scratch: all meals are prepared completely from scratch by the onsite chef – everything from bread to jam and tomato sauce is made in-house. 

Active participants: children enjoy a wide range of healthy and delicious food. They eat in a designated space for meals, and engage with everything from preparation of the meals, serving themselves, socialising with peers, and cleaning up. Children use real crockery to enhance their dining experience, teaching them to respect and look after cutlery. 

Cooking experiences: children are regularly exposed to opportunities to get creative in the kitchen with the onsite chef. The kitchen plays an important role in the centre with children enjoying their regular cooking experiences. 

Sustainability: children learn where their food comes from through hands-on activities such as collecting eggs, picking herbs and vegetables from the vegetable garden, worm farming, composting and water conservation.
