After School Excellence

Welcome to After School Excellence, located at Maryland Drive in Maryland, Australia. As an establishment and point of interest, we are dedicated to providing exceptional care and support for your children after school.

At After School Excellence, we understand the demands of modern life and aim to ease the stress by offering a safe, fun, and exciting environment for your children. You can focus on your work and have a productive day, knowing that your evening will be as stress-free as possible.

Our institution features unique zen zones, both indoors and outdoors, where children can find a peaceful space to start their day or unwind after school. We also provide robust sporting and outdoor play opportunities for energetic children, ensuring they have a supervised area to enjoy.

One of the highlights of our program is our "Master Classes," where children can immerse themselves in new learning experiences during each session. They have the opportunity to make new friends and enjoy a safe and happy environment.

At After School Excellence, we acknowledge and respect the traditional custodians of the land. We recognize the importance of their teachings, nurturing, and protection of their children, which we strive to continue.

We are committed to fostering a safe, inclusive, and respectful environment, free from discrimination. Our institution actively promotes social justice and empowers our community to address inequality and celebrate diversity.

We believe that the experiences children have during their middle childhood have long-term implications for their development and well-being. Therefore, we prioritize play as the best way for children to learn and grow.

Our dedicated team is committed to providing the highest quality education and care in an inclusive and harmonious environment. We value family/educator partnerships and embrace collaborative decision-making and shared knowledge.

At After School Excellence, we are guided by Australia's My Time Our Place Framework, National Quality Standards, and the UN rights of the child. Our practices are informed by middle childhood theories and contemporary research.

Don't just take our word for it, here are some testimonials from parents and caregivers who have experienced our services firsthand:
