College Early Learning Centre

College Early Learning is the Early Learning Centre (ELC) located adjacent to ICA Casey College. The Centre is now open.

When fully operational, the Centre will accommodate 90 children from 3 months of age to 5 years of age. Each of the five rooms will have a qualified staff member and an assistant.

Staff will observe areas of child development and these observations will be recorded to form an individual program for each child. Our staff are trained to identify children’s strengths and therefore encourage children to challenge themselves in a particular area by providing challenging activities and experiences. Individual programs are incorporated into the group program. The group program will cover all areas of development, incorporating each child’s interests and needs. The group program is evaluated fortnightly prior to a new program being written by a qualified staff member.

Children will be offered breakfast, morning tea, a hot meal for lunch and afternoon tea. For the children collected after five o’clock a snack will also be offered. We have a qualified chef preparing the lunch meal for the children on a rotating cycle so children experience a range of different foods.

For any parents wishing to make enquiries, the centre is open daily from 6:30am to 6:30pm. For further information or appointments please contact the centre on (03) 9704 6751 or elc@casey.ica.edu.au.
