About Oakdowns Early Learning

Our Mission

At Oakdowns Early Learning Centre in the City of Clarence, Tasmania, our mission is to provide a nurturing, safe, and inclusive environment where every child is supported in their early development. We are dedicated to fostering a love of learning through play-based education, encouraging curiosity, and building foundational skills that will serve children for life. Our commitment to families and the community ensures that every child receives the care, attention, and tailored support they need to thrive.

Our philosophy

Our Centre Philosophy has been developed in collaboration with the families’ and team members' own beliefs, values, and life experiences with the goal to provide a safe, healthy, caring and stimulating environment for children and their families.

What Oakdowns Early Learning is best known for

Experienced and Caring Educators

Our passionate and experienced team of educators is committed to providing high-quality care. With low staff turnover, we offer children a consistent and familiar environment. Many families return to Oakdowns with younger siblings; a true reflection of the trust and satisfaction parents have in our service.

We incorporate the most current Early Learning Years Education programs, along with the Tasmanian Quality Standards Kindergarten (TQSK) focused on the core areas of development for children during their early years.
