The Early Learning Centre operates between 7.30am and 6pm Monday to Friday. The Centre is closed on public holidays and for approximately two weeks over Christmas.
The ELC welcomes children between the ages of three and five. The fees include all meals (breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and late snack ). We are only able to offer full day rates, however children are not required to attend for the full day if this does not suit the family.
Families can choose their own attendance days (minimum two days).
As the Early Learning Centre operates as a long day care registered provider, parents will have access to the Childcare Subsidy (CCS). More information on eligibility and the rates of CCS can be found https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au
Fees are charged through the ELC Finance Team fortnightly in advance.

Introduction
The purpose-built Early Learning Centre opened its doors in January, 2010. Two tailored programs are run each day, the P3 (three-year-old pre-school) classes and PK (Pre-Kindergarten) classes. Rooms are staffed according to regulatory requirements.
Philosophy
At Brindabella, we believe that every child is uniquely created in the image of God, blessed with personality, imagination and individual abilities. Our aim is to educate and equip children for life.
At our Early Learning Centre every child is supported, celebrated, and encouraged. We believe that children are creative explorers and deeply curious learners. Through a balance of play based learning and intentional teaching, we provide thoughtfully planned learning environments to inspire and support learning across all developmental areas.
We recognise families as children’s first and most influential educators and seek to partner with them in nurturing each child’s learning journey. We are committed to open communication, mutual respect, fostering strong collaborative partnerships, and respecting the wider community.
We provide a child centred, high-quality, Biblically-based education delivered by Christian teachers who role-model our values in a nurturing learning environment where gifts, faith and purpose are cultivated and where children are well known, well loved and well taught.
