Here’s what parents and carers are sharing on Google Reviews
We especially appreciated the educators, manager and director. Our daughter makes caring friendships and loves her classroom teachers. Thank you Explorers for giving our daughter so much of positive experience.
I am so happy with all the admin support as well, especially during his transition to kindy by providing documents needed by primary school. Sam was so amazing and helpful a lot! Canβt thank her enough and all the team in Bardia Explores. Keep up the good work!! X
Explorer's learning academy was/is the complete opposite for us. Huge yard - amazing for kids to be outside exploring, running around and testing their own abilities. The educators are honestly beautiful, and all so lovely. Special credit to Sam who really brought my son out of his shell! I noticed a big change in him as soon as he started at explorer's. He made friends, brought home art and craft "masterpieces", brought home a lot more sand, dirt, bark and grass (means he had fun!), but also came home happily telling me about his day! I wholeheartedly believe that Explorer's assisted in his transition to kindy greatly, and I'm so relieved and glad that we made the decision to move them to this centre.
Our family appreciate the girls at Explorer's so much, and while there have been some staff that have left (as would all other centres) my kids have taken no time in adjusting to a new educator here and there, nor has it affected their happiness and eagerness to attend. My daughter's favourite tends to rotate between many educators, which tells me she's fond of more than just a few of the girls. Shout out to Kasey, Simone and Cristina for loving on my sensitive princess of a baby girl and making her ease into the centre without an issue in the beginning. I'm confident that when Baby #3 is ready to start, he will be well looked after and adored also!
π Happy Fatherβs Day! π

Thank you for the love, guidance, laughter and adventures you bring to our little Explorersβ lives. We hope you have a beautiful day celebrating just how special you are!

πΎπΆ Living Safely with Dogs NSW Visits Explorers Bardia! πΆπΎ
Today our preschool children had a very special visit from the Living Safely with Dogs NSW Program as part of our ongoing School Readiness and Child Safety learning.
Through an engaging and interactive session, the children learnt important skills for staying safe around dogs, including:
π How to safely approach and interact with a dog
β When we should not touch or approach a dog
π How to recognise some of the signals dogs use to communicate
π§ What to do if an unfamiliar dog approaches us
π Why we should always ask the owner before patting a dog
πΎ How to behave calmly and respectfully around animals
The children loved putting their new knowledge into practice and had lots of opportunities to participate, answer questions and demonstrate safe behaviours.
Experiences like todayβs incursion help our children develop confidence, awareness, responsibility and practical safety skills that they can use within our wider community.
A huge thank you to Living Safely with Dogs NSW for visiting Explorers Learning Academy Bardia and providing such a valuable learning experience for our children!

π Celebrating Our Wonderful Dads & Father Figures! π
What a beautiful afternoon we had yesterday celebrating Fatherβs Day at Explorers Learning Academy Bardia!
It was wonderful to welcome our dads, grandads, uncles and special father figures into our centre for an afternoon of connection, laughter and making memories together. From our sausage sizzle and soccer fun to building cubby houses and getting creative in the mud kitchen, there were plenty of special moments to enjoy.
For our children, having the important people in their lives join them in their learning environment creates such a wonderful sense of belonging, pride and connection. They were so excited to share their space, introduce their friends and educators, and enjoy some special one-on-one time together.
A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the afternoon so special. We hope all of our dads, grandads, uncles and special people have a wonderful Fatherβs Day this Sunday!
πΈ Here are just a few special moments from our afternoon together!
