Young Academics Early Learning Centre - Marsden Park

As your child is getting ready to start ‘big school’, our Transition to School Program recognises the importance of the formative preschool years in terms of building their emotional, cognitive and physical development. 

Our Transition to School program is thoughtfully designed to prepare children for the exciting adventure of formal education. Recognising the significance of this pivotal milestone, our Transition to School program focuses on cultivating the essential skills and confidence needed for a successful transition to school life. 

Our dedicated educators work closely with each child, providing support to ensure they feel emotionally ready for the next chapter of their educational journey. Through a blend of structured learning, play, and interactive experiences, we aim to instill a love for learning while nurturing their independence and resilience. 

At Young Academics, we take pride in guiding children towards a seamless and positive start to their school years, laying the groundwork for a lifetime of academic success and personal growth. We are committed to providing children with the best possible start to their future education and fostering a lifelong love of learning. 

Our Transition to School Program focuses on seven key areas which promote the holistic learning and development required as children prepare for kindergarten and is supported by our well-resourced environments and sector leading educators. Through our play based learning approach, every activity ensures your child is ready for real-life situations. Vital to preschoolers, we ensure your child is well supported to learn at their own pace, giving them the confidence to take on kindergarten.

At Young Academics, we are focused on the holistic growth and development of each child, with health and nutrition a top priority for us. Marsden Park features an inclusive menu of five delicious and nutritious daily meals prepared by our in-house cooks. All meals present an opportunity for our children to learn about the importance of a well-balanced diet, guiding them towards lifelong healthy eating habits. 

A child’s first five years are crucial in developing healthy eating behaviours, exploring new foods and meeting nutritional requirements to help them grow and develop. Nutrition is also integral to improving children’s wellbeing, self-confidence, and ability to concentrate. At Young Academics, we understand our early learning environments play a pivotal role in exposing children to a variety of nourishing foods and promoting healthy eating habits for life. 

Our holistic Nutrition Program allows children to take part in preparing and serving their meals and learn about the important connection between hygiene, physical activity, and healthy eating.Our nutritious seasonal four-week rotating menu meets 50% of your child’s daily nutritional requirements by serving a healthy variety of foods such as vegetables, fruits, lean meat, fish, chicken, dairy products and more.
