Beaconsfield Children's Hub is dedicated to providing a warm, enriching environment for children and families. We see families as the experts in their children, and as such, encourage parents and siblings participation and to be an integral part of our program. This holistic approach ensures that individual children's interests and developmental needs are the focus of our programs. Families are welcome to join children at many special days of the year, including Mothers and Fathers days, Special People's day, Easter and Christmas festivities and more. We also invite parents to share any special talents/interests with the children. Examples would be if you play a musical instrument, or have an exciting job, or have been on an adventure that you might like to share with the children. If you would like to enrol your child into Beaconsfield Children's Hub, please contact us on 9769 3333 to make an appointment to view our centre. You may also like to complete the Enrolment Form and bring it with you.
