Active Kids Homebush

Active Kids Homebush is a long day care centre in Homebush West, and is only a short walk from Flemington train station. We cater for children aged 8 weeks to 6 years and incorporate a school readiness program for our preschool children.

We have a team of qualified Early Childhood professionals with many years of experience within the industry. Our centre coordinator, Denise, has been part of the AKG family for over 10 years. 

Our rooms are designed for open learning opportunities to ensure each child will learn, engage and grow in a stimulating environment that caters for their needs and optimal development. We also have a purpose built children’s mini kitchen where children can engage in their own cooking experiences.

Our curriculum based program encourages an effective and strong partnership with the community and families. This contributes to each child’s love of learning when providing a link between home and the centre. Children’s documented learning and daily experiences are accessible to all families via OWNA, our online communication platform. 

We offer a School Transition program that helps prepare final year pre-schoolers for that next step – primary school, whilst helping them become more confident and independent in a social learning environment.

Sustainability plays a major role in our curriculum and is embedded into our centre on a daily basis. We have a purposely built nature garden with plants, herbs and a worm farm to support children in becoming environmentally responsible and show respect for the environment.

Our chef works on-site 5 days per week and prepares nutritious meals including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and late snack. We cater to all children’s needs including any special dietary requirements.
