Waratah Street is a quiet, smaller-scale centre next to beautiful Gunnamatta Park. We’re a one-minute walk from Cronulla train station and close to four primary schools: Cronulla, Cronulla South, Burraneer Bay and St. Aloysius. We make great use of our beautiful local environment for the children's learning. We also engage with our community by visiting parks, library storytimes and many other local destinations.

Families love our centre’s community feel. We enjoy wonderful relationships with families and encourage their contribution to the children’s curriculum.

Our new playground is a modern, spacious and full of exciting opportunities to extend children's development. It features a sandpit with water feature, large spiderweb climbing structure, cubby house with slide, shaded reading nook for quiet time and connecting with nature, and a herb and veggie garden for our garden-to-plate program.

Environmental practices are important to us. The children love to garden and help with composting. They also harvest veggies for use in our centre meals.

Families value our creative and skilled team and the genuine care we have for the children. We want every child to feel valued and appreciated. Inclusion and diversity are at the heart of our smaller-scale centre. We meet every child’s individual needs and we warmly support parents' goals for their child. Our learning program reflects the children's voices and our team's talents. We have a passion for sustainability, cultural awareness, arts and wellbeing.
