About Orchard Road Community & Early Learning Centre
Welcome to Orchard Road Community & Early Learning Centre, a purpose-built community hub located in the heart of Doreen, Australia. Situated next door to Ashley Park Primary School and Riverstone Shops, and just a short drive from Yarrambat Primary School, our center is conveniently located for families in the area.
At Orchard Road, we offer a range of programs for children aged 2 and under all the way up to kindergarten-aged children between 4 and 6 years old. With 8 rooms specifically designed to create a stimulating and fun environment aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework, we provide spaces that encourage both independent and group play for children of all ages.
Our outdoor play space spans over 2500 m2, providing plenty of room for children to run, jump, ride bikes, and most importantly, laugh. For our younger children, we have a digging patch, sandpit, cubby house, climbing equipment, and slides, allowing them to explore and develop new skills at their own pace. With large shade sails, outdoor play is encouraged all year round.
For our kinder-aged children, we offer a range of exciting features such as a large rock climbing wall, swings, and climbing equipment. Our water pump and rock river bed provide opportunities for water play and creativity in the sandpit. Additionally, we have bamboo screening areas where children can enjoy quiet time and reflection.
Our dedicated educators believe in building strong relationships with families and are always happy to discuss your child's progress. We provide regular opportunities for connection through family events such as our center's birthday and family Christmas parties. We also utilize the Storypark platform to keep families informed about their child's learning milestones.
At Orchard Road, we understand the importance of nutrition, which is why our center's cook prepares morning tea, lunch, and afternoon tea. We also offer breakfast for children who arrive before 8:00 am and a late snack just before 6 pm.
Operating from Monday to Friday, from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm, Orchard Road Community & Early Learning Centre is an approved provider of a Victorian Government funded kindergarten program. This means we deliver a play-based learning program led by a qualified early childhood teacher.
As the center manager, I have been with the "Y" family for 15 years and have witnessed many transformations in early childhood education. I am passionate about building strong relationships and connections with children, families, educators, and the broader community. We are here to provide a safe and inclusive space for everyone.
Don't just take our word for it, hear what some of our families have to say about their experiences at Orchard Road: "It's so lovely to hear that he was happy and can't wait to come back. It is truly because of the friendly staff that he felt comfortable to attend without tears. He now looks forward to coming and telling Rach and Beck about his latest Lego stories." and "The 3 and 4-year-old kindergarten programs were the perfect preparation for our son beginning primary school. The focus on social and emotional learning and care shown by the teachers was fantastic and exactly what we were hoping for."

"Top notch facility with top notch staff and admin. Vicky, Rosa and Beck are always welcoming and there to help and ready to go out of the way to make sure your kids are looked after well and they feel at home while at the centre. Both kinder and daycare centres have great staff and very supportive. I wish we had more like these ones."
