Start your childcare journey with us!
Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School is growing! Our brand new childcare service Koolangka Learning is open to children aged 3-5 years from this July, alongside our excellent programs for pre-Kindy and Kindergarten, and we are excited to welcome your little people into our vibrant school community.
To start your childcare journey with us, enrol your child today – from 22 July 2024, we are welcoming children from ages 3 to 5 years. From the beginning of 2025, we will open up to children from 12 months old to 5 years, and you are welcome to reserve your child’s place in advance!
Join us for our Open Morning on Saturday, 14 September. Visit our event page for more information.
Purpose-Built Early Learning Centre
Our state-of-the-art facility, the Eric Speed Centre, is specifically designed to cater to the unique needs of young learners. Our beautiful, natural surrounds encourage exploration and play, in a safe and secure environment.
Access to Premier School Facilities
Children will benefit from access to our wonderful Lishman Library, multiple sporting ovals, and other excellent school facilities – just like the big kids!
Qualified and Caring Staff
Our facilities are managed by a fully qualified Early Learning Educator and supported by a team of suitably qualified staff, dedicated to providing the highest quality of care and education. Find out more about our Education and Centre Centre Director, Kristy Holdcroft, and her passion for early childhood education!
Innovative Programs
Our programs are guided by the principles of the Early Years Learning and ‘My Time our Place’ frameworks that emphasise play-based and child-centred learning. We focus on fostering curiosity, independence and a lifelong love of learning!
Chef-prepared Meals
We ensure our children are fed well, with delicious and nutritionally balanced chef-prepared meals daily! We are able to accommodate any dietary requirements your child may have, giving you peace-of-mind when entrusting their care to us.
Community-Centric Approach
Our childcare service is open to all families in the community, and our broader early learning programs offer unparalleled educational opportunities for children. Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School has been entrusted to shape bright young minds for over 50 years, and our Education and Care arm – encompassing Koolangka Learning childcare, Little Grammies pre-Kindy program, and Kindergarten – is passionate about offering this to the youngest members of your family!
