Kitchen Hand

Centrally located on Payneham Road, Glynde, this brand-new centre has been custom-designed to meet the evolving learning needs of children six weeks to six years of age.

As you enter our beautiful centre, you’ll find our state-of-the-art Chef’s kitchen and culinary lesson area, as well as our parent lounge where families can connect or meet with educators over fresh barista coffee and a baked treat.

Our learning hubs are bright and inviting, filled with rich, warm timber resources and innovative educational materials. Each hub leads out to a wonderful outdoor space, where children can enjoy countless hours of fun on the bike track, in the cubbyhouse, or caring for our edible gardens.

Our Bachelor qualified Early Childhood Teachers will deliver our Pre-Kindy and Kindy program (4-6 years old) which is designed to support our children in developing their skills and abilities essential to achieving success in future learning environments.
