Young Academics Early Learning Centre - Penrith Coreen

A child’s first five years are crucial in developing healthy eating behaviours, exploring new foods and meeting nutritional requirements to help them grow and develop. Nutrition is also integral to improving children’s wellbeing, self-confidence, and ability to concentrate. 

At Young Academics, we understand our early learning environments play a pivotal role in exposing children to a variety of nourishing foods and promoting healthy eating habits for life. 

Our holistic Nutrition Program allows children to take part in preparing and serving their meals and learn about the important connection between hygiene, physical activity, and healthy eating.

Our nutritious seasonal four-week rotating menu meets 50% of your child’s daily nutritional requirements by serving a healthy variety of foods such as vegetables, fruits, lean meat, fish, chicken, dairy products and more.

Young Academics brings together a team of highly skilled and passionate educators committed to sparking each child’s curiosity and love of learning. With a family-orientated approach, the Young Academics team provides a warm and welcoming environment where children feel safe and supported. The knowledgeable and accredited educators are well-trained to notice opportunities for play-based learning which is shaped by each child’s needs and personalities. 

At Young Academics, we believe in hands-on learning experiences. Our educators seamlessly blend play and education, fostering creativity, critical thinking, and social skills. Recognising the uniqueness of each child, our team tailors activities to cater to diverse learning styles. From sensory play to art exploration, we ensure your child develops holistically at their own pace.

Beyond education, our team is dedicated to building strong, positive relationships with children and families. Trust, kindness, and understanding are the foundations of the connections we foster. As a home away from home, the team welcomes parents to be involved in the development of their child’s program, through feedback and regular communication.
