About Great Beginnings Orange
We are conveniently located for families in or commuting through Orange and Clifton Grove.
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.
- Preschool (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.

If I could give zero stars, I would. I trusted this centre with my daughter, believing she would be kept safe and that has proven to be a huge mistake!

If you have children that attend this school then you need to have a chat to them about what exactly they are exposed to during school hours. It is very clear that there is a lack of supervision in the rooms. Disgusted and disappointed in this school. I would not recommend anyone sends their loved ones here!!!

Great childcare centre. Kids actually look forward to going to school each morning. Amazing educators that care for your child's wellbeing and keep you updated with the child's progress through their journey while at the centre. Lots of fun activities to support learning at all learning levels. Highly recommend. Thanks for what you guys do.
