Welcome to Olsen Avenue Community Children's Centre, conveniently located in Labrador, Australia. Nestled amidst suburban bushland, our center provides a serene and natural setting for children to explore and thrive. With our spacious outdoor areas, children are encouraged to run, play, and discover the wonders of the world around them.

At Olsen Avenue Community Children's Centre, we embrace the Curiosity Approach, which fosters children's learning through exploration, awe, and wonder. Our child-initiated curriculum, inspired by elements of Reggio, Steiner, Te Whāriki, and Montessori, encourages curiosity, imagination, and problem-solving skills. We believe that nurturing these qualities in our children will shape them into the thinkers and go-getters of our future.

Our educational play spaces are thoughtfully designed to inspire learning and self-exploration. We value the input of both children and families in creating flexible and inclusive environments that spark curiosity and creativity. By instilling an appreciation for the natural world and promoting sustainable practices, we aim to raise a generation of Earth's caregivers.

As educators, we prioritize the well-being and sense of belonging of each child. We foster a sense of community and ensure that every child's voice is heard. Our warm and passionate educators serve as positive role models, cultivating curiosity, imagination, and wonder in the children and themselves. Through critical reflection and collaborative efforts, we strive to provide the support and guidance necessary for each child to grow into a confident and happy individual.

We deeply value the partnership between our center and families, recognizing them as the first and most influential teachers in a child's life. We respect and embrace diverse cultures and beliefs, drawing on the knowledge and experiences of families to enrich our Curiosity Approach.

In our commitment to inclusivity, we work closely with the local community to broaden children's understanding of the world they live in. We acknowledge and pay respect to the traditional owners of the land, the Yugambeh language group of the Bundjalung Nation. By promoting curiosity, imagination, awe, and wonder, we aim to foster a strong community spirit.
