Building strong relationships with families and watching children bloom into engaged learners inspires me. I am extremely passionate that children are incredible teachers when life is explored alongside them.

By placing your child at Scots, we will welcome you as a part of our community. Your child will be safe and supported and their needs actively met throughout their growing developmental stages. We’ll communicate with you daily that your child’s voice is being heard, acted upon and reflected on as part of our program.

Learning experiences

Our activities and excursions will support your child to learn about the world around them and have fun along the way. We enjoy visits from the local safe pet handling program and college band to play for us.

Caring for the environment

We take excursions that encourage children to care for the environment and develop sustainable living habits.

Your child will help:

Tend to our vegetable garden
Tend to the sensory garden in town where we are met by garden club members who teach us about the plants
Water our plants
Care for our chickens
Feed the cows in the paddock next to our centre.

Family and community connections

We offer opportunities for your child to engage with our local community by working in partnership with our local school, playgroup, healthcare and emergency service professionals. We welcome families to participate in our activities when they can. Whenever possible, we run activities that build connections between the children and our community.

We invite you to participate in:

Language

We can have all forms of communication translated for families who speak languages other than English.

Service Lead

Cheryl

Hi, I’m Cheryl and I’m the Service Lead at Orbost Uniting Early Learning. I’ve been an educator at the service for 5 years and worked in early learning for over 12 years. I have a Diploma in Early Learning.

I get great joy out of discovering how children learn and helping them to extend on their interests and knowledge. At Orbost Uniting Early Learning, our team provides a safe and secure family and community environment that provides a child–led nurturing program.

Mental health

Nutrition

Your child will learn about nutrition and how to take care of their body. We teach food safety,
healthy eating and the importance of exercise through fun and practical activities. We cater for all dietary requirements. Our vegetable garden supports our heathy eating activities and we use our own produce in our cooking program. We have fresh eggs from our chickens and these are used for cooking or taken home by the children.
