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! Can’t 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!
What a buzzing week our beautiful Echidnas Room has had exploring the wonderful world of insects!
Our curious little Echidnas have been engaged in a week-long insect project filled with hands-on discovery, sensory exploration, creativity, and wonder. Through sensory trays, interactive stories, puppet play, nature-inspired crafts, songs, and messy play experiences, the children have been using all their senses to explore the tiny creatures that share our world.
The children loved feeling different textures in our bug sensory trays, listening to stories about butterflies and ladybugs, and using puppets to build early communication and imaginative play skills. Our little artists also created beautiful insect crafts while exploring colours, patterns, and fine motor skills.

We are so proud of the joy, curiosity, and engagement our Echidnas have shown throughout this exciting project week!

Celebrating the incredible mums, grandmothers, and special women in our children’s lives.
What a beautiful morning we shared together at our Annual Mother’s Day Brunch! We would like to say a heartfelt thank you to all the mums and grandmothers who took the time to join us in our classrooms and create such special memories with the children. 💕
There was so much excitement and joy throughout the service as families explored a variety of Mother’s Day experiences together from sensory trays, flower arranging, card making, decorating activities, cooking experiences, easel painting and so much more! Watching the children proudly share their learning spaces and enjoy quality time with their loved ones truly made the morning magical. 🌸🎨🧁
Thank you for the love, warmth, and connection you bring to our community each and every day. The smiles, laughter, and special moments shared today are memories we will treasure.

They stood where courage met the dawn,
For peace we wake to, they are gone.
In fields of red, their stories stay,
Lest we forget this ANZAC Day.
