Fauna Place Early Education Centre Kirrawee

* ANY VACANCIES WILL BE POSTED ON OUR WEBSITE www.sutherlandshire.nsw.gov.au/earlyeducation *

Fauna Place enjoys a private aspect in the heart of Kirrawee, off President Avenue. We’re near Kirrawee train station and next to the commuter car park, for ease of drop off and pick up for families. Our location also allows us to enjoy many local excursions and experiences.

Children love spending time in our state-of-the-art playground. It's an important space – the same amount of learning occurs outdoors as it does indoors. Our ‘outdoor classroom’ promotes active play. Children develop social skills, imagination, gross motor skills, expressive language and more. Outside, children play on our climbing structure, slide and wooden teepee. They enjoy riding trikes along our bike track. The sandpit and mud kitchen are popular for imaginative play. A covered deck provides all-weather fun including art experiences and mealtimes.

Our Centre Director has more than 20 years’ experience. She leads a team of nurturing and dedicated early childhood professionals. At the heart of our philosophy is close communication and collaboration with parents.

The centre's quality learning program includes a deliberate combination of intentional teaching and spontaneous learning. It also reflects the children’s interests and each child’s learning goals. We foster every child's love of learning. Children who are inspired to learn will thrive in every aspect of their development. They will ask questions, process information, try new things, be happy to share and collaborate, develop friendships, join in games, and know they belong to a community of learning.

Our creative early education programs follow the Australian Government's Early Years Learning Framework, the only government-approved learning framework for children under school age.
