Welcome to Cooraminta Children's Centre



We hope your child's time at our service will be an enjoyable one.

Your child's early year's development is a very important stage and we hope to promote independence and a feeling of greater confidence in your child.

We hope all parents and families will become involved in our centres activities and make this a very successful and memorable time for all.

Our Philosophy.

We believe that childhood is a precious and unique time and that children should be valued and encouraged to thrive.

We believe that home, family, community and our children's centre are all important elements in the education of the child.
We promote cultural awareness amongst the children, families, staffand the wider community.

We believe that our centre promotes respect and tolerance towards each other, the families and the children.
We ensure that all staff interactions at the service with both children and adults are respectful, honest, courteous, sensitive, tactful and considerate.
We believe in actively promoting gender, racial and cultural equity, and sustainable practices in all the activities we provide and the resources' we utilize at the centre.

We believe our program should include activities that encourage an appreciation of the arts, music and literacy. With the children we explore the concepts of science, technology, engineering, and numeracy.
We advocate for the right of every child in our centre to learn through play and offer the children opportunities to develop the physical, social and emotional skills needed for the transition to school.
(In accordance with the National Early Years Learning Framework and /or the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework.)

We understand that every child will take a unique path towards achieving their learning outcomes and we will provide a variety of activities and experiences that cater for their individual learning goals


We understand the importance of providing a safe and secure environment whilst also understanding that learning requires taking risks and new challenges.

Your child's time at our centre will be spent exploring freely, satisfying their curiosity and learning at the same time.

We believe our children are competent and will achieve an awareness of themselves, their community and their world.

We believe Cooraminta Children’s Centre should be a fun, inviting and secure place to be!
