Green Leaves Early Learning Albury
Green Leaves Early Learning Albury Centre overview
Green Leaves Early Learning Albury is a two-storey childcare centre with an eco-conscious design, offering care for children from 6 weeks to school age. The centre is open from 7:00am to 6:30pm, has plenty of parking, and offers easy access to the Hume highway.
Quality care is the focus at this centre, and they offer a wide variety of extracurricular activities including cooking, music, yoga, and regular excursions. The Educators use only high-quality, sustainable materials in the learning space, and sustainability is a focus of the learning program.
As you enter our beautiful centre, you'll find our state-of-the-art Chef's kitchen as well as our family lounge, where families can catch up with each other or with our Educators over fresh barista-made coffee and a baked treat.

About the curriculum
About the curriculum
6 weeks - 12 months
Their passionate and experienced Educators work closely with families to ensure each baby’s routine is personalised to meet their individual needs. The children take part in activities within a stimulating learning environment. They enjoy group time during their music and movement program, or visits from special guests. Throughout the day, the babies enjoy taking part in songs and storytelling, sensory activities, and messy play in the garden. Under the guidance of their Educators, the babies enjoy their meals and snacks with their friends. During Nursery nap time, they are taken into the sleeping area where gentle music and a twinkling night sky encourages them to rest.
2 years - 3 years
The Educators recognise that routines for toddlers are an important opportunity for learning. Performing daily, predictable tasks while having fun is a chance for toddlers to build their self-confidence, communication, and social skills. The toddlers enjoy a daily rhythmic routine which assists them to transition between activities throughout the day. They take part in activities such as music, yoga, cooking, painting, drawing, singing and dancing, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) based activities, and the centre’s sustainability program. The toddlers also enjoy mealtimes with their friends and Educators.
4 years - 6 years
The Educators ensure the children’s environment is fun and inviting, encouraging quality play-based experiences to help them develop memory skills, language, and self-regulation, supporting the transition to school and academic learning later on in life. The children enjoy yoga, visits from special guests, and regular excursions to local parklands. Mealtimes are an opportunity for the children to enjoy social interactions with their friends and Educators, as well as learn about body awareness and nutrition. Practicing independence, the children help to set up, serve, and clear away their dining area. Throughout the day, the Preschool children engage in activities that include literacy and numeracy games, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities to encourage children to think creatively and critically. Many of the children particularly enjoy the outdoor adventures around the bike track or expanding their green thumb knowledge, through cultivating the edible flower and vegetable gardens that provide countless hours of eco-education and fun.

I assume it has something to do with the change in staff positions and how often staff members are quitting. My daughter used to be so excited to go and eventually began to be too scared to enter the room when I would drop her off. On 4 occasions, I had to sign an incident report of my child being hit, cut or bitten by the same child. I assumed there would be zero tolerance to bullying but I was told that kids would be kids. After hearing this, I decided to pull her out of the daycare. I had also told the manager that I had left a domestic violence relationship which meant there were no contact drop offs and was arranging mediation so they were completely aware of the changes. The centre have been liaising with him behind my back and arranged to re-enrol her despite the bullying. What a joke. She isn't even in the fathers care on some of the days he's arranged for her to attend and does not even have access to her birth certificate or immunisation details to finalise the enrolment as he's not her primary carer. I'm extremely disappointed in the management at this centre and would not recommend anyone to send their child here. Read more

We have been very happy with the care and services provided by the team at Green Leaves. The Centre is always clean, the food is delicious and the staff friendly. They bring external people into the Centre to provide additional experiences and learning opportunities. My eldest daughter is currently learning some basic sign language, but has done music, gym, dance and yoga to name a few. On the odd occasion where I have expressed a concern or queried something, I have always felt heard and the Centre leaders have actioned it immediately. :-) Read more
