Our Mittagong West service has a large garden for our children to explore, play and run in.
With natural space that is shaded by large trees that give the kookaburras and cockatoos a place to safely watch our children garden in the veggie beds and care for our resident rabbit and chickens.
Our cook prides herself on cooking nutritious meals with a menu that is approved by Munch and Move; so we know it ticks all the boxes, but it’s always oh so tasty too!
Our babies through to our preschoolers are busy bees, always having educational and fun activities to learn through play. The design of the service allows all ages to share experiences together, making meaningful friendships as the children and grow in their space.



Here’s what parents and carers are sharing on Google Reviews
I was quite nervous leaving my daughter for the first time at 4 years old, but all the staff were very welcoming, warm and just really lovely. Highly recommended! Wouldn't go anywhere else!
The teachers are so lovely, and so passionate about the work they are doing with these little minds. We only have 1 year left now before big school and I am excited to see the new things Scarlett will pick up as a ‘Schoolie’ next year. My kid adores her teachers. Talks about how great they are all the time.
She will really miss coming here when she graduates. Another thing I really appreciate about these wonderful ladies is that they want to send my girl out into the world completely prepared for what comes next. They are dedicated to making sure these kids are equipped to handle the transition to ‘big school’ so they will not just ‘be fine’ at school but excel! Thanks again Explorers for looking after my Scarlett. Highly recommend.
This week at Explorers Learning Academy, we welcomed our wonderful grandparents to join us for a special morning tea and fun activities! 💛 These meaningful moments bring generations together, helping children build strong relationships, develop a sense of belonging, and feel connected to their wider community. Sharing stories, laughter and experiences allows children to learn from their grandparents while creating treasured memories together. This experience links to the EYLF Outcome 1, as children develop a strong sense of identity, and Outcome 2, as they connect with and contribute to their world.

This week our Explorers children have been expanding their knowledge and learning new things. In our toddler room they have been learning about Skeletons and counting, which turned into our friends turning their teachers into mummies! Super Spooky. In our baby room, they have also been learning about counting using books and activities as a catalyst for their learning. In our preschool room, they have been learning about recycling and taking care of our ocean and the animals that live in them.

🌱 Springtime at Explorers Learning Academy! 🌼
Spring is a wonderful time to explore, discover and connect with nature! Our children have been busy planting in the garden and using recycled materials to create a beautiful fence garden for their plants. 🌿🌻
Through these hands-on experiences, children are discovering the wonders of the natural world, developing a sense of responsibility and learning how small actions can make a big difference. By caring for their plants and reusing materials, we are nurturing a love for our environment and encouraging sustainable practices from an early age.
These experiences link to the EYLF Outcomes 2 and 4, supporting children to connect with and contribute to their world, while developing curiosity, confidence and a sense of wonder through hands-on learning. 💚
Together, we are growing little gardeners and caring hearts, one plant at a time! 🌏🌱

Community engagement plays a vital role in a child’s early development, transforming everyday learning into rich, real-world connections that foster empathy, communication, and a strong sense of belonging. Receiving two thoughtful replies this week from Mogo Wildlife Park and Taronga Zoo after writing to them ignites genuine excitement and validates their curiosity by showing them firsthand how their actions reach beyond the classroom. Our children were very excited to get your lovely responses, Mogo Zoo and Taronga Zoo! Moments like these not only deepen their connection to wildlife conservation, but also teaches children that their voices are heard, their letters matter, and they are active, valued members of a wider community.
