CURIOSITY Early Learning Centre is a place where our children and their families are ‘Active, Connected and Growing for LIFE’. Our Early Learning Centre environments and projects are designed to promote each child’s curiosities and wonders in an inclusive space where they are supported to become confident, independent and active problem solvers with the understanding that they are valued contributors to society. Our philosophy speaks to our School’s core values of Love, Optimism and Creativity, rooted in a deep understanding that because of God’s love for the world and his heart for community, we are made ‘One in Christ’. We value each child as equal citizens in our community, appreciating the unique differences found within each child. When Can I Enrol My Child at CURIOSITY ELC? Enrolment begins with securing a place in Foundation at Good Shepherd Lutheran School Para Vista. This process involves attending a Principal's Tour and participating in an interview with Principal Evie Stevens. Following this, a meet and greet session with ELC Director Jacqui Gliddon is arranged to determine the most suitable pathway for your child to commence at CURIOSITY Early Learning Centre. What Are The Fees for CURIOSITY ELC? CURIOSITY is registered as a Child Care Facility offering Long Day Care from 7am to 6pm. Child Care Subsidy is available to all Australian Resident families, subject to meeting immunisation requirements. Entitlements are determined by an activity test, and eligibility details can be found on the Human Services website.

Recognising the diverse needs of families, CURIOSITY ELC aims to provide flexibility. We operate from 7am until 6pm, Monday to Friday, for 48 weeks of the year. While open during school holidays, we close for four weeks over the Christmas break, with dates published at the beginning of each year to assist with family planning during the closed period. Families have the option to participate in holiday programs or opt-out without charge, holding their nominated days of attendance until the new term commences. We are excited to welcome you to CURIOSITY Early Learning Centre, a wonderful place where children are inspired to learn and explore their innate curiosities.
