All meals provided
Open 6:30am to 6:30pm
A week at Strathfield Early Learning

What your child actually does here.

Not a framework. Not a headline. A real week, written down.

Monday
Sensory room

Water trays, natural light, quiet corners. A room designed to slow things down before the week picks up.

Tuesday
Piano with Teacher Sarah

Thirty minutes, every child, from eighteen months. No auditions. No extra invoice at the end of term.

Wednesday
Kitchen helpers

Mini pizzas, real dough, real heat. Supervised, obviously. Children learn more with their hands in the food than watching someone else cook.

Thursday
Gym and movement

Structured balance and coordination work. A proper session with progression built in, not free play dressed up as PE.

Friday
THRASS reading circle

Our literacy programme, running from six months up. The only centre in NSW doing this from infancy. Ask us how it works at your tour.

Christine, the owner, is here every day.

Direct access, not a centre manager several layers removed. The policy lives in the enrolment pack. The short version: if you have a concern, you talk to the person who owns the building.

From the owner
Hello —
"Our building is four floors of light and real rooms. No corporate layer, no franchise playbook. If your child is tired, I'll know. If you're worried, you talk to me."

— Christine Girgis, Owner

From Google Reviews
"The level of care here is unlike any centre we've visited. Our daughter went from not wanting to go anywhere without us to asking to go back on weekends. Christine knows every child by name."

Priya M. — Google Review

"We moved our son here after a difficult experience elsewhere. The difference is hard to overstate. The educators are calm, consistent, and genuinely interested in what he's learning."

James and Sarah T. — Google Review

"The piano programme sold us, but it's the everyday detail that keeps us here. Someone always knows where our daughter is and what she did that morning."

Six weeks to six years. We have a dedicated nursery room for children under two, a toddler room, and two preschool rooms. Each room has a consistent educator team so your child builds genuine relationships, not just passing familiarity.
