Young Academics Early Learning Dharruk (Expression of Interest)

Located on Jersey Road, our new Young Academics Dharruk centre is nestled in a  residential neighborhood, offering a welcoming space for children from six weeks to six years old. We believe in creating a rich environment where children feel safe, valued, and encouraged to explore, fostering their growth and development in every way.

Dharruk features three engaging and spacious classrooms and outdoor play yards that meet in a central communal sandpit. This shared play area fosters a sense of belonging and encourages collaborative play, giving children the chance to interact across age groups. Our outdoor spaces include a sensory garden filled with herbs, promoting hands-on learning and a love for nature.

There is a strong focus on risky and nature play, allowing children to safely engage in activities that build resilience, confidence, and physical skills. Our play areas invite exploration and curiosity, creating opportunities for climbing, balancing, and imaginative play that are essential for holistic development.

Healthy eating is a key part of our philosophy. At Young Academics Dharruk, we provide nutritious, balanced meals and snacks prepared on-site, supporting children’s physical and cognitive growth. Our centre includes all essentials – such as nappies and wipes, as well as cot linen (excludes stretcher bed linen) – making childcare as convenient as possible for busy families.
