Involving parents in our centre is vital to ensure the child's well-being, foster consistency between home and the childcare environment, and establish a trusting and supportive partnership between families and caregivers.
We offer a range of classes and informative talks designed specifically for parents to attend throughout the year. These sessions are tailored to provide valuable insights, guidance, and support for parents in various aspects of child development, parenting, and family well-being.
We encourage parents to participate in their child's centre experience. If you have free time during the week and would like to join us for a meal or engage in activities with your child and their friends, please reach out to your key educator or contact the centre office to coordinate your involvement. Your presence enhances the centre experience for both you and your child.
At our centre, we actively celebrate a diverse range of religious observances, festivals, and national holidays. We regularly provide parents with information about these events on a monthly basis and warmly encourage their active participation. Joining in these celebrations helps create a rich and inclusive cultural experience for both children and their families.
At our centre, safety and quality early learning sit at the heart of everything we do. Our rigorous staff screening and ongoing training processes ensure that every educator is fully qualified, well prepared, and comprehensively trained in child safety. We maintain consistent educator teams to build strong, trusting relationships with children and families, and we do not use agency staff. This consistency creates stability, connection, and confidence within each centre.
Our environments are intentionally designed to promote safety, supervision, and accountability. CCTV monitoring operates in key areas, room layouts support clear lines of sight, and our routines are structured to allow smooth, well supervised transitions throughout the day. Continuous supervision and strong team support ensure a respectful and secure learning environment for every child.
Most importantly, children’s wellbeing and voice guide our approach. Every child is seen, heard, and supported. Body safety education is thoughtfully embedded into our program and resources are available to families to extend these conversations at home. Our learning spaces are also strictly personal device free, allowing educators to be fully present and engaged with the children in their care.
At North Star Early Education, we believe a centre should be more than just a place of learning. It should be an active, positive contributor to the community it calls home. We are deeply invested in the local communities in which our centres operate, and we keep this front of mind in everything we do.
We proudly support local sporting clubs, community groups, and events through ongoing sponsorships and donations. We regularly attend community fairs and local initiatives, not just as participants, but as active contributors who genuinely care about the families and neighbourhoods around us.
Our commitment to community is intentional and long term. By building strong local partnerships and giving back wherever we can, we strengthen the sense of belonging for our families and ensure our centres remain connected, supportive, and engaged within the communities we serve.
Upon enrolment, we will provide you with a detailed list of what to bring, and if you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to reach out directly to your centre for assistance.
Accidents happen! Please include a full change of clothes, including underwear and socks, to keep your child comfortable throughout the day.
If your child has a favorite blanket, stuffed animal, or comfort item, feel free to include it. Familiar items can help ease separation anxiety.
A reusable water bottle is essential to keep your child hydrated throughout the day. Please ensure it's labeled with their name.
For outdoor play, please pack a hat to protect your child from the sun.
If your child requires medication during the day, please bring it in its original packaging along with any required forms.
We’ve attended many centres, but North Star is worlds apart. Our 2-year-old is happy every day, and they truly nurture each child’s individuality. We’ve even waitlisted our unborn baby!
Thank you Connagh & Jaspreet for having Varis. It’s such a relief knowing that Varis is having such a lovely teachers.
So glad she has settled in perfectly.
Thank you I am so so glad she is back into childcare and making friends ❤️.
My daughter has become a strong character and she expresses her opinions.
She’s become so expressive – clearly showing emotions through words and facial expressions. I’ve noticed her positive growth and transformation happening very quickly.
He has clearly become more attentive and independent. He now washes himself, eats on his own, and even tries to help me in the kitchen at times. I’ve also noticed that he expresses his feelings much more easily now.
Since our son started in the FinlandWay® programme he has started to trust himself more and make his own decisions. He has a very good relationship with his friends and he loves school.
As a mother, I see my child thriving and full of energy, and I credit this to the FinlandWay® approach your school has adopted.
I would like to say that the FinlandWay® program is enjoyable for both the child and the teacher, and it helps the child develop quickly. This program also contributes to shaping a good citizen who cares for others, collaborates with them, and shares tasks and resources. Additionally, it helps the child enjoy learning and be creative.
