Families of Campbelltown, it’s time to get ready! The newest and much-anticipated Emali Early Learning Centre is opening soon, bringing the joy of learning through play to the community.

This brand-new centre is custom-designed to nurture the growth and development of children from 6-weeks old through to Preschool, featuring innovative learning spaces that are sure to delight both children and parents alike.

With the build now in its final stages and approaching full completion with a few more touches left to add, we have a little sneak peek to share with KIDDO readers!

Spaces built for exploration and growth

Emali Campbelltown’s state-of-the-art building has been thoughtfully designed to support children’s learning journeys. One of the standout features is the dedicated sensory space, crafted in collaboration with qualified Occupational Therapists providing an environment where children can relax, reset, learn to self-regulate, and build skills both emotionally and physically that further support the child’s ability to learn.

The early learning centre is made up of five inspiring indoor areas, with each uniquely designed to cater to babies, toddlers, pre-kindy and preschoolers. These spaces all flow freely into vibrant outdoor spaces, with every corner of the centre set to encourage imagination, creativity, and fun, aligning the curriculum and all learning experiences with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF).

• Nutritious Meals: Prepared fresh daily by in-house cooks, the substantial meals served at Emali utilise high-quality, locally sourced produce, are designed to keep children nourished and healthy.

• Complimentary Extra-Curricular Programs: From Music & Movement classes to Sports & Activity lessons, plus more, children at Emali enjoy a variety of enriching programs on a regular roster adding value on top of every-day learning experiences.

This is supported with a structured program which introduces the foundations of school-based subjects such as science, math, art, and more.

As children grow at Emali and transition into Preschool, they thrive and develop their confidence as they learn alongside the established friendships they have with peers and educators.

Emali’s Preschool program is delivered in a long-day care setting with all meals included, adding convenience for working families, plus a sense of safety and comfort for the children as they continue their daily routine in a familiar environment.

These moments aren’t diversions from learning. They’re learning at its most authentic. For children in their foundational years—from infancy to primary—outdoor learning and play isn’t just valuable; it’s essential.
