Our Forster centre will be a brand-new facility dedicated to supporting and nurturing children aged 0-5 in their early learning and development.
Contemporary environments
Our Forster centre will feature thoughtfully crafted indoor and outdoor learning environments that encourage exploration and creativity. With plenty of natural elements integrated into the design, we inspire a sense of wonder and connection with the environment. Additionally, our commitment to sustainability is reflected in the centre’s operations, which will be powered by 100% renewable energy.
We focus on fostering inclusivity and supporting each child’s unique developmental journey, ensuring that our centre provides a nurturing and engaging environment conducive to learning and growth.
Passionate and qualified educators
Each St Nicholas Early Education centre is staffed by a dedicated and passionate team of educators, with each individual staff member bringing a unique background of experience and diversity. We provide ongoing professional learning opportunities to promote continual improvement of our programs and practices.
Child-centred, play-based curriculum
The curriculum at St Nicholas Early Education Forster will be guided by the principles of the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), nurturing each child’s natural curiosity and creativity through play-based learning. It emphasises building strong relationships, developing essential life skills, and fostering a sense of belonging. With a focus on inclusion and equity, the program encourages active family engagement and tailors learning experiences to support the individual needs and potential of every child.
Partnership with Holy Name Primary School
St Nicholas Early Education Forster will offer a unique co-located facility, conveniently located alongside Holy Name Primary School. This setup streamlines the drop-off and pick-up experience for families with children attending both the early education centre and the primary school. This model not only enhances convenience but also facilitates a smooth transition for preschool children preparing for their educational journey ahead.
Central to our offerings is the Transition to School program, designed to equip preschoolers with the skills and confidence they need for their transition into formal schooling. By fostering collaboration between early education and primary school settings, St Nicholas Early Education Forster aims to provide a seamless experience for children and their families.
