Campus Overview
Only About Children Castle Hill childcare centre has two large outdoor play areas, so children have plenty of space to explore, create and lead their own play. Each dedicated area has its own sandpit and vegetable garden and sits under both natural and man-made shade. Our preschool playground is home to resident chickens which the children are encouraged to care for. Our children love to recycle food scraps for our chickens, worms and compost bins! Our five age-based indoor spaces are designed, with natural elements, to encourage children to learn and grow.
We enjoy getting out into our local community through planned excursions and community activities that build on our educational curriculum and the children’s interests. At our Castle Hill childcare centre these include visits to our neighbouring Fire Brigade and supervised exploration of our large rural property. We host many community events including chicken hatching, STEM activities, reptile shows, Mother’s Day and Father’s Day functions as well as our annual Christmas Party and graduation ceremony for our school leavers.
