Our spacious outdoor areas are designed to engage all the senses and include a cubby house, sandpit, tunnel, vegetable gardens, and an all-weather play area on the second level. This all-weather play area features a sandpit, cubby house, soccer pitch, and ample space for children to run around and explore the outdoors throughout the year.

Our kitchen is the heart of our centre, where our in-house cook prepares healthy meals and snacks to cater to all dietary requirements.

At Greenwood Scoresby, your child will have access to a range of engaging specialized programs, including sports, music, dance, bush kinder, and weekly BBQs. These programs aim to build a solid foundation in learning and skill development, providing your child with a well-rounded education.
Exploring the local community and the beautiful surroundings of the Caribbean Business Park is an integral part of our curriculum. We regularly embark on excursions to enhance children's understanding of their environment and foster a sense of curiosity and connection to the world around them. We also welcome special guests and community members based on the children's interests, such as local swim schools, responsible pet ownership programs, library representatives, and families who share their own special talents.
Neighborhood connections play a vital role in developing a sense of community and belonging for children. They provide opportunities for children to develop social and observational skills by interacting with different people, places, and environments.
Our daily Kindergarten program is taught by James, the winner of the 2019 state educator of the year award. James brings engaging learning experiences to life and ensures that your child's formative years are filled with educational and enriching experiences.

Reviews
"I have a fantastic experience in this place and my kid does like this center. He is willing to go to CC everyday and this never happened before. All educators are patient and friendly. Indoor area is tidy and clean, and there are a lot of activities every day."
"Working with one of the parents and one of the finders from “the incident” you’ll find in some older reviews I was hesitant to consider here, but due to availability of days at the main centre the kids go to, I didn’t have a huge amount of options on the very short notice of my partner returning to work. I spent considerable time with the new management team and going through with them about what happened, and what they’ve done physically to stop it happening again, and then later some of the revised procedures. They also advised that all staff and leadership involved at the time of the incident no longer work for greenwood in any capacity. I ended up using them for 2 days a week as a stop gap as the main centre my kids were at couldn’t accommodate those days. What happened next completely surprised me. The kids thrived here compared to the other centre. I saw a step change in development and general happiness of the kids when they moved here, and the care and attention the educators give the kids is amazing. After around 2 months, instead of it being the stop gap, it is now the primary and as of next week it will be the only centre that we use. Keep up the great work Lucinda, you’ve done an awesome job turning this centre around, and built a great team to support you and most importantly the kids."
"From the centre manager down to the staff and kids we have experienced nothing but positive things. The way they handled our transition to a new day care and how they opened their arms to us was truely amazing and made us feel at home. By observing how much they love every child is really heart warming and I’m so happy we made the move!!!"
"We have been very happy with the service provided by the team at Greenwood Scoresby, which has really assisted us as first time parents. We can certainly see the development since our daughter has commenced here and the positive relationships she has made with her educators and other children. Thank you!"
"*Note the typical G8/Greenwood copy and paste response to anything negative. Absolute proof they could not care less about you or your child. Ask yourself why G8 own so many different branded childcare centres. They rename them after each incident. Just wait until this one is called something else to escape their screw ups* My 4 year old daughter (and another child) escaped through the fire exit here a couple of months ago. She was left out in the pouring rain for 10 or more minutes. The centre claims 5 min, whereas the people who found her state 15min. Luckily she was found by a couple of good Samaritans who returned her to the centre. After speaking to the people who found her, they told me that the centre manager couldn't care less what had happened, so they decided to ring the centre's head office. My wife and I were informed a full 2 hours after the incident. Giving the centre enough time to call in their damage control team and get their stories straight. I had to prompt the Manager for an apology! We actually had to ask if they would refund us the day our daughter escaped. When they agreed, they made a point to mention it was not an admission of guilt on their side. Disgusting. We've had no end of issues with this centre, from the toxic work environment from a previous member of staff, to staff turnover that is utterly ridiculous. At one point 12 people had left within a 2 month period. Our daughter didn't even know her teachers name when asked. Do yourself and your children a favour and steer clear."
