Environment

Environment

At Beachcomber we give children opportunities to lead their play by following their interests through exploration, inquiry, and discovery in our home-like environment.  

Our well-resourced centre promotes children’s development through literacy, numeracy, science, and social development across a wide variety of activities and experiences.

Garden and Outdoor Area

Our garden and outdoor play area inspire interest in the natural world.

Children can follow their passions and curiosities by exploring the sensory and vegetable gardens, or investigating the worm farm and butterfly garden to witness nature first-hand.

 A full shade sail protects children from the sun during the day and creates a bright and comfortable place for children to challenge themselves to run, climb, imagine, laugh and play on and around our inter-changeable purpose built playground.

Sandpit

The sandpit is another fun place for children to explore.

Full of diggers and other toys, and alongside our water station, the sandpit enhances dexterity and stimulates the children when working together and collaborating with one another.

Workshop

Beachcomber preschool features a dedicated arts and crafts area that we refer to as The Workshop.

Packed with materials and art supplies, it is a favourite place to explore for so many of our children, where they can explore their creativity and self-expression through a variety of art mediums.

Inside Learning Spaces

Our big, vibrant, colourful room hosts the majority of our group activities throughout each day.

It is a large, comfortable space where our children participate in music, movement, stories, and sharing experiences. 

Right next to the reception, the room is a smaller, cosier space that is used for quieter activities such as small crafts, puzzles, reading, and other toys.

This room offers a calm place for children to pursue individual tasks and activities.

Outdoor Walkway

Our workshop and indoor learning spaces are connected by a covered outdoor walkway. 

This space is home to our worm farm, a posting letterbox, and beautiful plants, and provides opportunities for outdoor play and fresh air in all weather.   

Lockers

Teachers work alongside children, supporting their learning and encouraging them to participate in experiences throughout the centre.

Every child gets to choose their own locker for each day, and their first activity upon arriving is to locate their name tag and velcro it to the locker where they will store their belongings.

Please talk to us if you have any questions or concerns about your child’s care and education.
We thank you for entrusting your child to us and hope that you and your family enjoy your time at Beachcomber Early Learning Centre.
