Discovery Bay Rowville Childcare and Early Learning Centre 197-199 Murrindal Drive, Rowville, Victoria 3178

Welcome to Discovery Bay Rowville Childcare and Early Learning Centre, located on Murrindal Drive in Rowville, Australia. Our establishment is not just a point of interest, but a place where young minds can embark on a journey of discovery and growth.

At Discovery Bay, we believe in the power of guided play to help children make new discoveries and form new neural pathways. Our approach focuses on reaching communication, movement, and coordination milestones, as well as making new connections through practical real-world experiences. By providing a solid foundation, we ensure a seamless transition into school for your child.

Creativity, problem-solving ability, and independent thinking are stimulated through our purposefully designed rooms, equipped with the right tools for a range of fun activities that embed important lessons. Our playgrounds are specially designed for enrichment and discovery, allowing children to explore and discover the outdoors. From creating fairy gardens to playing pirates in the jungle, the only limit is their imagination.

The Explorer Spirit is at the heart of our philosophy, giving children the confidence, curiosity, and resilience to go out there and find whatever it is they want to find in life. We believe in building knowledge and stimulating creativity, problem-solving ability, and independent thinking. Our enquiry-based activities engage children with tactile materials, allowing them to make new discoveries and connections.

We understand the importance of nutrition for growing minds and bodies. That's why our seasonal menus follow Australian Nutritional Guidelines specific to early learning and afterschool childcare. Our meals are balanced and healthy, made from fresh and delicious ingredients.

Our educators play a vital role in facilitating a tailored journey of discovery for each child. They are at least Diploma qualified, and we advocate for our senior educators to hold a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education. We prioritize your child's physical and emotional wellbeing, ensuring safety comes first. If any issues arise with another child, we work with both parties to understand the behavior and guide healthy pathways for their emotions.

Your child's health is also important to us. We take every measure to ensure minimal risk of viruses and unwanted bugs. Each of our rooms is equipped with an air purifier that minimizes airborne virus risk while improving and filtering the air.

We incorporate innovative technologies, such as OSMO, to stimulate better learning. Children keep an online learning journal of their discoveries, allowing them to record progress and cherish precious memories from their early years.

Discovery Bay is proud to be one of the first early childcare centers to bring STEM subjects into early learning. Our industry-first methodology incorporates Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) within a Montessori curriculum. STEM encourages children to inquire, problem solve, make new discoveries, and form new neural pathways.

We measure our success by the foundational resilience, confidence, and critical thinking ability that your child gains. Learning at their own pace, children make takeaways from their discoveries that they can apply to everyday life. Our curriculum follows the guidelines from the VEYLDF and the NQS, ensuring your child is set up for success in any school they choose.

Our educators have higher job satisfaction than the industry standard, and we invite you to experience your child's daily adventures through a guided tour of our center. Meals are prepared by a chef and packed with nutrition, providing your child with the fuel they need to thrive.

At Discovery Bay, we acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land on which our centers are situated. We pay our respects to their respective Elders, past and present, as well as the Aboriginal Elders of other communities who may still reside in these areas today.

Join us in building the educational foundation, confidence, and critical thinking skills that kids need for a strong start in life. We are proudly participating in the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden Classroom and are a member of Montessori Australia.
