Templestowe World of Learning 249 High Street, Templestowe Lower, Victoria 3107

Welcome to Templestowe World of Learning, a premier early learning and long day care centre located in the heart of Lower Templestowe, Australia. Our centre is the perfect choice for families living or commuting through Lower Templestowe and nearby suburbs such as Doncaster, Templestowe, Christmas Hills, and Eltham.

At Templestowe World of Learning, we are dedicated to creating a love of learning in every child who walks through our doors. Our centre provides a nurturing and inspiring environment where children can explore, grow, and develop to their full potential.

Our spacious outdoor area is a haven for children to engage in active play and learn through hands-on experiences. With a cubby house, sandpits, waterplay area, vegetable garden, and other exciting play equipment, children are encouraged to test their limits, develop strength, balance, and self-confidence.

We take pride in our team of experienced educators, some of whom have been with us for over a decade. Our centre has been recognized for its excellence, receiving a grant from the Department of Education to run a bilingual kinder, making us one of only seven kindergartens in the whole of Victoria. Additionally, we were awarded Business Excellence in 2018 by the Manningham City Council for our strong community connections and diverse range of experiences offered to the children.

Inside our centre, children are provided with engaging resources and learning experiences that promote exploration and discovery. Our educators plan play-based learning experiences tailored to each child's interests and learning goals, incorporating literacy and numeracy concepts. Children have the opportunity to become architects, storytellers, scientists, artists, and designers as they test out their ideas and creativity.

We understand the importance of healthy eating habits, which is why our in-house chefs prepare fresh and nutritious meals daily, catering to all dietary requirements. Shared mealtimes between children and educators foster relationships and provide opportunities to model healthy eating practices. Children also have the chance to assist in selecting edible plants from our vegetable garden, which are then used in some of our meals.

To enhance the daily program, we offer a rotating schedule of specialized programs including sports, music, and Chinese and French language classes. These programs help develop fundamental skills and provide a well-rounded educational experience.

Community connections are integral to our centre, as we regularly venture out on excursions to local schools and aged care facilities. We also invite special guests such as dentists, health professionals, and preschool field officers to extend children's learning. These experiences foster a sense of belonging and help children develop social and observational skills.

At Templestowe World of Learning, we are committed to teaching children about sustainability and caring for the environment. Through our vegetable garden, children learn about sustainability practices as they engage in activities such as harvesting food, weeding, watering, and nurturing the environment.

As a member of our World of Learning community, we are excited to partner with you to provide information, support, and high-quality education and care during your child's formative years. Our Family Support Team is available to discuss your child care needs and schedule a tour of our centre. Contact them today at 1800 413 995.
