Aurrum Kids Childcare Ballarat

Welcome to Aurrum Kids Childcare Ballarat, located in the beautiful suburb of Wendouree in Victoria's central highlands. Situated on the land of the Wathaurong people, Ballarat Aurrum Kids offers a unique learning experience for children in a culturally rich and historically significant community.

Our center is conveniently located, allowing children to explore nearby attractions such as the Ballarat Botanical Gardens and the open-air museum Sovereign Hill. These experiences enable our children to enhance their learning within their local community and develop a deep appreciation for the history and culture of the area.

At Aurrum Kids, we provide a stimulating environment for children to grow and learn. Our custom built playground features a variety of engaging elements, including raised garden beds, climbing equipment, a rainbow bike track, water play area, and creek bed. In addition, children have access to the parklands and sports fields adjacent to the center, allowing them to explore and engage in outdoor activities.

We believe in the importance of intergenerational connections, which is why we have a unique Grandfriends program. Through this program, children have the opportunity to build lasting friendships and create cherished memories with older adults. This interaction across generations enriches the children's experiences and helps them develop a sense of empathy and respect for others.

Our on-site cook prepares fresh meals daily in our custom designed kitchen, using seasonal ingredients often harvested by the children from our herb and vegetable gardens. This "playground to plate" experience not only teaches children about nutritious food options but also encourages their participation in cooking their own meals.

Our dedicated team of educators is carefully selected for their qualifications and experience in early childhood education. They are passionate about providing the best possible start for your child and ensure that our educational focus areas are represented. We also keep families updated on their children's activities, interests, and development through our Parent Portal in KinderM8.

At Aurrum Kids, we understand the importance of community and inclusiveness. We embrace the diverse cultures and rich history of Ballarat, and celebrate cultural events throughout the year. Our center is committed to providing a true sense of family and belonging for children, families, and the community.
