Westmead Early Education Centre is an architecturally designed purpose-built centre and features a Preschool Centre and an Early Learning Centre. The Early Learning Centre is located at 108 Railway Street, Wentworthville and is a beautifully renovated and expanded cottage with a natural garden learning environment. Our Early Learners experience a home-like atmosphere with two small groups of children (aged between 6 weeks to 3 years) and high educator/child ratios ensuring individual care and learning.
The Preschool Centre located at 106 Railway Street, provides a preschool program with high educator/child ratios for children aged 3 to 6 years. There are two learning groups within our preschool with spacious and well-resourced facilities including a separate dining room where our fresh healthy meals are prepared and served by our in-house cook. Our huge outdoor garden learning environment is our ‘wow’ factor with many children referring to it as the “park”.
Our caring educators place an emphasis on developing positive and trusting relationships with the children and their families and encourage family feedback and participation continually in our programs. We would like to invite you to visit Westmead Early Education Centre to see and experience the difference.
