Early Learning Centre Horsley (Habeda Avenue)
Our Little Peoples Early Learning Centre Horsley (Habeda Avenue) is located in the heart of the Horsley suburb. Caring for children from the age of 6 weeks to 6 years old, our programs based off the Early Years Learning Framework, focusing on Being, Belonging, and Becoming are tailored to each child. Transition to School Program is a large part of our Preschool Room. Open 52 weeks a year, only closing for Public Holidays means we are able to provide long opening hours for our hard working families. Recently renovated, our centre provides a wide range of resources for all ages including computers and a smart screen, a spacious outdoor learning area, and we have been registered as SunSmart with the Cancer Council.
Meet Rebecca, Your Centre Supervisor
Hello Parents and Caregivers,
My name is Rebecca Sapienza and I am the Nominated Supervisor at Little Peoples Early Learning Centre Horsley.
I have recently been offered this opportunity at Horsley and bring to it knowledge and experience which I have gained through my previous roles as the Nominated Supervisor at Lake Heights & Dapto and the 2IC at Little Peoples Gwynneville Centre.
From a young age my passion for early childhood education has grown, I believe this period of time is the most important as we collaborate and build the foundations to assist children in their development and set them up for future successes throughout their learning journey. I feel incredibly honoured to have the opportunity to play such a big part in your children’s lives.
I strongly believe children learn by being provided with an environment that encourages them to build confidence, express their individuality, is predictable and is a place where they feel safe and welcomed.
At Horsley we pride ourselves on providing the quality education and care that is inclusive of all children and we look forward to having the opportunity to meet you!
We welcome you and your family into our Centre.
Yours faithfully,
Rebecca
Meals
Morning tea, Lunch & Afternoon tea are all provided
At Little Peoples we believe that healthy eating habits are formed in early childhood and that children’s nutrition is important to their health and life long development, that is why our nutritional menu incorporates the daily dietary requirements of children.
Our Service receives fresh and nutritious meals delivered to us daily by Kids Gourmet Food. The menu rotates every six weeks exposing children to the broadest range of flavours, textures and ingredients, while ensuring they are receiving the recommended nutritional intake every day.
