Our Inclusions
Nutrition
At Kid’s Retreat Early Learning Centre we provide fresh, nutritious, homestyle meals for our children every day. The meals are cooked by the qualified chefs at Kids Gourmet Food and delivered and served fresh daily. They use high-quality, fresh ingredients and a broad range of flavours and textures to create meals that meet – and often exceed – the latest nutritional guidelines for children. The six-week rotating menu allows your children to experience a variety of cuisine that includes a wide range of fresh vegetables and legumes, seasonal fruit, wholegrains and seeds, lean fresh meat and fish and dairy options. You can rest assured that children with allergies, intolerances or cultural preference will receive tailor-made meals for their specific requirements.
School Readiness
Kids Retreat offers a comprehensive school readiness program for children aged 0-6 years that ensures a smooth transition to school, fostering a lifelong love for learning while equipping children with the skills necessary for their educational journey.
This program is designed to support holistic development through a blend of literacy, numeracy, health and fitness, arts, cooking, and STEM, using both explicit instruction and play-based methods. Grounded in the National Quality Framework and Early Years Learning Framework, the curriculum encourages children to engage in purposeful play and hands-on learning, connecting their experiences to the real world. At Kid’s Retreat, every child is nurtured to grow into an independent, lifelong learner.
Extra Curricular Program
At Kid’s Retreat, we celebrate each child’s individuality by fostering their unique interests and passions. From sports to the arts, our diverse range of additional programs allows your child to explore and develop their talents in a supportive environment. Whether they want to enhance their athletic skills or uncover a hidden musical gift, we’re here to inspire and engage them every step of the way.
Library
Reading offers countless benefits for young children, fostering cognitive development, language skills, and emotional growth. It enhances their imagination and creativity while improving concentration and comprehension. Our mini Kids Retreat library is a fantastic initiative, giving children easy access to a variety of books and fostering a love of reading from an early age.
