About Test Beacon Street Children's Centre

Vermont South, VIC, 3133

  • The Centre's learning curriculum is guided by the Victorian Early Years Learning Framework, with instruction done through a mix of intentional teaching and child-prompted learning.

  • Each child's learning is documented in a journal and this is presented to families as a keepsake at the end of each year.

  • The journal forms a valuable record of your child's journey and allows children to relive with their families all their experiences at Beacon Street.

  • In 2016, all our outdoor play spaces were redone to incorporate a wealth of natural materials, including trees, shrubs, sand, rock and wood. This encourages children to be curious about their natural environment, stimulates their creativity and imagination and allows for a hands-on experential immersion in their environment.

  • The Centre has a well established link with Livingston Gardens Aged Care, with the children spending time with the residents on reciprocal fortnightly visits.

  • The children are also a regular feature in the community, with frequent excursions to the local shops, library and post office.

  • An in-house chef prepares fresh meals daily using a rotating four-week menu. All dietary needs are catered for, with special meals prepared for children who may have dietary restrictions.

  • Beacon Street Children's Centre is a Sunsmart centre, with hats and sunscreen provided to all children when they are doing activities outdoors between September and March.

  • Health and nutrition forms a regular part of the curriculum also, where the children are encouraged to think about the foods they are eating and the importance of physical activity.

  • Long Day Care: 37 children aged 12 months - pre-school age

  • Kindergarten: 32 approved places

  • 7am - 6pm Monday - Friday, 52 weeks a year

    The childcare subsidy calculator above also calculates the childcare fees you pay - weekly, quarterly and annually.

    When calculating this figure, it considers the childcare rate for all of your children, as well as the average time they spend in childcare.

    Be aware that this is an estimation. The actual figure will vary depending on the amount of childcare actually attended by your child.

    Provider Reviews

    I feel so grateful to have my son cared for at Beacon Street. He is so happy there, loves the food and environment, and is developing so well there. The staff are incredibly positive and skilled. They treat my son as a person they know and like, and i can see how much they genuinely care about him. This centre is very well run and i couldn't ask for more.-T Marg
