Each of our centres is unique but they all quickly become your child’s home-away-from-home. At Day One, we understand that children learn best in a space where they feel happy and safe. With highly engaging spaces to learn, explore and unwind, our learning environments spark curiosity and confidence.

We have developed a number of bespoke Day One educational programs to prepare children for the opportunities and challenges of life beyond Day One. Our programs are incorporated into your child’s daily routine at Day One and are guided by their own interests. The DO Programs include DO Social, DO Health, DO Language, DO Knowledge, DO Creative, DO Planet and DO Kindy.
Excursions For All Ages
Excursions For All Ages
Day One World Explorers are often seen out and about exploring the community and environment in which we live. This includes everyone, from babies through to kindergarten. We encourage parents to participate in these excursions where possible too. The real benefit of excursions is that they provide real-life experiences that cannot be replicated in our centres or even at home.
Community Engagement
Community Engagement
Engaging in our local communities plays a paramount role in supporting children to develop feelings of belonging and security. Additionally, as children grow and develop, authentic relationships with the outer world helps them to find their place and leads them to understand shared values and how society works.
