Empowering Children to Thrive in a Nurturing Environment
Byron Bay Preschool is a not-for-profit, community-based early childhood education centre that has been providing high-quality education to children in Byron Bay since 1976. Our preschool is committed to delivering responsive and innovative programs that cater to the individual needs and strengths of each child. Our team of experienced and qualified educators work in partnership with families to develop a 'priority learning goal' for each child, ensuring that every child receives a tailored approach to their education.
Our Philosophy
At Byron Bay Preschool, we believe that every child has the right to be included and feel a sense of connection and belonging. We prioritise the emotional well-being of every child, recognising that when children feel safe, they can learn and thrive. Our preschool has a strong focus on nature and fostering a love of nature in children, which we believe is essential for their emotional and physical well-being. We also promote children's right to participate, speak up, and influence the world around them, empowering them to become confident change-makers.
Our Programs
Byron Bay Preschool offers a range of programs designed to cater to the diverse needs of children. Our In Centre Programs are led by degree-qualified early childhood teachers and are supported by experienced diploma-qualified educators. We also offer a licensed bush preschool program called Nature Hearts, which provides children with a unique opportunity to connect with nature. Additionally, we have Intergenerational Programs that bring together children and seniors, fostering a sense of community and social connection.
Our Centres
We have two centres: Cavanbah Centre, located in the heart of Byron Bay, and Coogera Centre, situated in Suffolk Park. Both centres are equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and are designed to provide a safe and nurturing environment for children to learn and grow.
