The University of Melbourne Early Learning Centre, situated within the vibrant university precinct in Carlton, Victoria, offers a nurturing and stimulating environment for children from six weeks to school age. It embodies a deep commitment to high-quality early childhood education, fostering a sense of wonder and intellectual curiosity in its young learners.
Drawing inspiration from the Reggio Emilia approach, the centre provides rich, play-based learning experiences. Children engage with diverse provocations and materials, encouraging creativity, critical thinking, and collaborative discovery. The facilities are thoughtfully designed to be an extension of the learning process, with engaging indoor and outdoor spaces that invite exploration and interaction with nature and peers.
Families seeking an exceptional educational foundation for their children will find a perfect fit here. Mums appreciate the dedicated and experienced educators, the strong emphasis on child-led learning, and the comprehensive curriculum that supports each child's individual development. It’s an ideal choice for parents who value a progressive educational philosophy, a supportive community, and the convenience of a world-class university setting in inner-city Melbourne.
