About First Grammar Epping

We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Epping, Lalor, Mill Park and Thomastown. Many of our Children go on to attend local schools such as Epping Views Primary School, supporting a smooth transition to school.

We offer nurturing care and quality early education for children from 6 weeks to 6 years, with flexible hours (9, 10, 11, and 12-hour sessions) to suit busy families.

Our Learning Environments

Our children benefit from familiar faces as they grow, creating a sense of continuity:

  • Nursery (0-2 years): A safe, nurturing environment for babies to explore with tailored sensory and social experiences.
  • Toddler (2-3 years): Play-based learning encourages curiosity, confidence, and social skills.
  • Kindergarten (3-6 years): A stimulating learning environment that prepares our children for school through our Enhanced Learning Program.

We’re proud to have qualified teachers and educators, supported by a team of national education experts, ensuring the highest quality childcare and early education.

Innovative Early Learning Programs

Our teachers deliver the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF or the national curriculum) through play-based learning that covers language, literacy, numeracy, STEM, social, and emotional development. Our program also includes:

  • Rhythm and Movement for Self-Regulation (RAMSR), an evidence-based program developed by Queensland University of Technology to support children’s executive function and self-regulation.
  • Environmental and social sustainability learning experiences.
  • Personalised learning plans for each child.
  • Local school connections.

We focus on strong family partnerships through regular learning and development conversations with your child’s lead educator, learning showcases, and in-centre family events. Our Xplor app provides real-time updates and learning summaries daily to keep you informed on your child’s journey.

    We have been with first grammar for about a year. It has been a great space to promote growth and development, the educators are lovely and it is reassuring to receive updates about your little one throughout the day via the app. Really appreciative of their care. ☺️

    First and foremost this is one of the best in our area. The team have a beautiful nature which takes away all the anxiety and anxiousness which parents do feel. I feel so confident in leaving my child with the team. A special shout out to Ha, who goes above and beyond.

    first grammar has been nothing but amazing since my daughter kora has started, she has had some struggles along the way and the support I have received from not just the manager Mel but koras educators, Chetna, Sonia & Peta has been incredible. They go above and beyond for my daughter, and I will forever be grateful for how much they have helped her grow and develop. Considering my daughter has not even been attending for a full year yet just shows the effort they go to for your child, they focus on each individual child’s wants and needs which I find amazing as all children hit milestones at different stages and the communication between myself and them is something you don’t see in most day care centres. If I could give a 10 star review I would. My daughter has learnt so much from coming to first grammar she absolutely adores her educators and has formed a great relationship with her class friends too. Would highly recommend first grammar to any parent. Incredible work guys 😊

    Our son spent his formative years at First Grammar Epping, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the exceptional care, love, and education he received. First Grammar Epping isn’t just a childcare center—it’s a community built on trust, joy, and excellence. Our son flourished here, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to any family seeking a nurturing, inspiring start for their child.
