AddressThe Service
KU is delighted to be the operator of a childcare service for the Commonwealth Bank (CBA) at South Eveleigh (formerly known as Australian Technology Park, located next to Redfern Station).
This new service caters for up to 90 children of CBA staff per day and provides a play-based program which intentionally enhances opportunities and experiences based upon the Early Years Learning Framework, for each child to discover and pursue their own interests and strengths. Our convenient location allows Commonwealth Bank employees to work near their children and visit them during the day. This provides families with extra quality time with their children, creating a wonderful community feel within our service.
