About FROEBEL Alexandria
FROEBEL Alexandria is a not-for-profit early learning centre and preschool, located in the heart of Sydney Park Village. Our centre caters for 44 children aged 6 months to 5 years of age, with a beautiful outdoor area and garden for our children which even includes a fire pit.
Our philosophy is rooted in progressive ideas developed by Friedrich Froebel, the renowned educator who shaped the kindergarten concept almost 200 years ago. His holistic approach to early learning inspires us even today: child-centred, play-based, in unity with nature.
Our educational program focusses on inquiry-based learning with our Little Scientists program igniting children’s natural curiosity and encouraging them to explore the world surrounding them, thereby fostering their independence and self-esteem. Part of our STEM learning program is implemented during excursions for all our age-groups to the local surrounds and beyond – we are so lucky to have beautiful Sydney Park nearby.
A number of our educators are German speakers and implement our immersive language learning program with German as a second community language. They speak with the children in German throughout the day, alongside their English-speaking colleagues, allowing children to pick up the new language very naturally. Supported is our immersive language learning program by German books, songs, games, routines and we also celebrate German traditions such as our annual lantern walk, alongside Australian events and traditions from our diverse team of educators.
We also focus on sustainability at our service, implemented through practices such as providing wet bags and eco-friendly nappies. Education for Sustainable Development is a part of our teaching, with projects such as our Recycling Tree or participating in Clean-up Day.

Our child has been attending Froebel Alexandria for two years, and our experience has been overwhelmingly positive. The team provides an incredibly supportive environment with engaging activities and a thoughtful curriculum, and the centre fosters a real sense of community. Every single educator we have come across has been extremely competent, supportive and above all genuinely caring and kind. Staff retention seems very high, allowing children to develop a real connection with the educators and to feel safe and comfortable. Communication is also excellent. We feel immensely lucky to have found Froebel, and to watch our daughter grow and thrive in such a positive environment.

We have sent our daughter (now in school) and son (attending for 1 year now) and have watched them grow while at the centre. We have such trust in the educators who take take joy in minding our son in the baby room, he is given all the tools to grown in self confidence and develop his language and socialisation. My daughter was there for almost 3 years grew in all ways, to aid her confidence in starting school, she made long lasting friendships and has such fond memories and connections with the educators at the centre. I couldn't recommend Froebel, Alexandria enough!!
