Our institution is a school and early childhood education center that provides long day care and early education for families in the surrounding areas of Canadian, Mount Helen, Buninyong, Miners Rest, and Ballarat East.

Conveniently located just a 3-minute drive from Midvale Shopping Centre, our bright and well-designed child care center offers a nurturing and inspiring environment for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. We are open from 6:30 am to 6:30 pm, ensuring flexibility for working families.

At Great Beginnings Mt Clear, we have a team of highly qualified and passionate early childhood teachers and educators who are dedicated to ensuring every child feels safe and nurtured throughout their early years' education journey. We understand the importance of keeping families involved in their child's development, which is why we provide daily updates and photos accessible through our family app.

Our center is designed to be a home away from home, encouraging every child's exploration. Each learning space extends onto our beautiful outdoor environment, which features shaded areas, natural trees, grass, and a lovely veggie garden. Our playgrounds provide endless opportunities for play, allowing children to develop their strength, balance, and self-confidence in a safe and engaging setting.

With 6 spacious rooms filled with natural light, our center caters to children from nursery age through to school age. Our educators utilize natural materials and create open-ended learning experiences based on the children's interests. We also have a large screen for interactive learning and displays celebrating the diversity of our families and their cultures.

Play-based learning is at the core of our curriculum, aligned with national standards and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Through play, children make decisions, learn, take risks, and have fun, preparing them for the transition to primary school.

We understand the importance of healthy eating, which is why we provide children with nutrient-rich, fresh, and seasonal foods. Our menu rotates every four weeks and caters to unique dietary requirements, religious preferences, and allergies.

We believe in actively involving children in food preparation, from growing and harvesting fruits and vegetables to helping cook meals. This approach helps children appreciate and understand the importance of healthy eating.
