Our Mission

We believe that young children develop and learn through play, and that each child’s early learning is the beginning of life long education and social development.

We believe children are active and capable learners who need opportunities to make choices about play and learning.

Our practices are guided by the Early Years Leaning Framework.

We are a community owned not-for-profit organisation – why not donate to us?

Our current goal is to update the outdoor activies areas.

We are proud to be part of the Worimi community.

Always was, always will be Warrimay land. Let us go together.”

 

Our CENTRE

Why GLCC?

Great Lakes Children’s Centre is a community owned not-for-profit Pre-school and Long Day Care centre. 
We offer a range of attendance options between 7am and 6pm Monday to Friday.

GLCC is an Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) registered centre and has achieved the “Exceeding National Quality Standards” rating.

Committee

Our centre is governed by its dedicated committee which consists of parents of children attending the centre.

No staff or executives are members of the committee.

Healthy Eating

Is it good for me?

We provide all parents with guidelines for healthy lunchboxes provided by NSW Health and encourage all children to make health-concious food choice even at home.

Healthy Habits

Is it good for others?

GLCC encourages children to play in a safe way without restricting their natural curiosities and desire to explore.  All child-child and child-carer interaction is inclusive and involves reflection time.

Healthy Living

Is it good for the environment?

Sustainability is at the core of our learning at GLCC.  We are strong adopters of the “four R’s” – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Repurpose.
