MercyCare Wembley Early Learning Centre
Heritage buildings and expansive grassed play areas sit high on the hill overlooking Lake Monger at our beautiful Wembley Early Learning Centre.
It’s not often an Early Learning Centre can offer so much space to run, explore and play. Three playgrounds, mature shady trees, large rooms and sweeping verandas create a beautiful environment for play and learning.
At MercyCare Wembley Early Learning Centre , many of our educators have been with us for years, some decades even, creating special bonds with children and families. We pride ourselves on providing a safe and secure setting for children, where families feel valued for their uniqueness and are respected and involved. Our highly qualified and experienced educational team provide a flexible, responsive and engaging learning environment tailored to each child’s individual needs.
Extensive grounds mean thriving gardens at our Wembley child care centre. Children learn about healthy eating and where their food comes from with our vegetable patches and chicken coop. We love creating a community around our gardens, where we share fresh produce with families, as well as a book exchange and recycle hub. It is also an important part of our outstanding environmental sustainability program, where children learn about the importance of recycling, waste reduction and caring for our environment.
Features and Highlights
In addition to our nutritious daily menu, our MercyCare MiniChef program gives children the opportunity to create and learn a different recipe to share with their friends or bring home to share. Featuring culturally-rich dishes, Indigenous recipes and produce from our gardens, it is a fantastic way for children to learn maths, science, problem solving, healthy eating and sharing.
