Groves offer a five day a fortnight Kindergarten program catering for children aged 4 by 30th June the year before they attend Prep. Wondering how everything works leads the children into a range of learning opportunities expertly weaved together to make the introduction of early literacy and numeracy an everyday event. Children develop socially through rich interactions with educators and increasing interactions with peers.

At Groves ELC we provide an environment where children always feel comfortable, secure, and valued. Our daily routine is designed with this in mind, offering a structure that maximises each child’s opportunities to learn and grow. Groves ELC provides education and care for children aged 15 months to 5 years in a nurturing Christian environment. We are open 50 weeks of the year, Monday to Friday, from 7:00am to 6:00pm, and close for two weeks over the Christmas and New Year period. All enrolments require a $50 confirmation fee per child to secure the placement. This fee is non-refundable and will be credited toward the child’s first week of fees. Should you wish to withdraw from the program, a minimum of two weeks’ notice is required to avoid further charges.

At OSHC, children are encouraged to collaborate with our dedicated Educators as they engage in meaningful experiences that foster their intellectual, social, emotional, physical, and creative development. Our play-based approach, grounded in Christian values, promotes a sense of belonging and encourages each child to explore their unique gifts and interests.

Within our Groves Outside School Hours Care (OSHC) Educators collaborate with children to come up with an exciting and engaging interest based program. Our program offers a variety of mixed activities, theme days, excursions and incursions that aim to engage and include all children. Our vacation care program allows children the chance to interact with others while in a wholesome setting.
