About C3 Childcare Group
C3 Childcare Group is a childcare centre in Croydon, Sydney. It is located on the land of the Wangal people of the Eora Nation. We provide day care that encourages learning through play as well as a rigorous School Readiness Program.
Our learning programs cover all areas of the Early Years Learning Framework. The School Readiness Program focuses on a mindful approach to pre-reading and pre-writing, literacy, numeracy, STEM, art, music and drama.
Kindergarten is a critical time in a child’s development. Here, children are encouraged to explore and are challenged to learn.
Our Director and Educators are all experienced Early Childhood and Infants Primary Personnel who program each day for the specific needs of the children. Educators encourage our children to participate in a wide range of activities that enhance their sense of self within the context of their learning environment.
We aim to develop your child to be able to think, create and cooperate so they can improve their social relationship, resolve conflicts and prepare for school. We welcome all families from Croydon, Five Dock, Burwood, Ashfield and other suburbs to tour our centre.
