If you are looking for a fun and safe environment in which your child can develop a love of learning, look no further than the Kookaburra Community Child Care Centre. Since 1985, our experienced Mackay teachers have provided vacation, before and after school care services to kids aged 0-12. Kindergarten programs, designed to foster fundamental literacy, numeracy and peer interaction skills, are run at our centre. To maximise the convenience of parents and guardians, child care benefits and rebates are offered. At the Kookaburra Community Child Care Centre, we believe that learning should be always be fun. Because of this, our qualified teachers run both indoor and outdoor educational programs. In order to instil within the children in our care an appreciation of environmental sustainability, we hold activities that involve growing and picking vegetables, as well as compost creation. The natural grass and trees at our location comprise the perfect, safe environment in which kids can exercise, make new friends, and have loads of fun. Healthy meals are provided for the kids in our care. The kindergarten programs run at the Kookaburra Community Child Care are designed to encourage your child to develop new interests and strengthen old ones. Japanese classes for kindergarten age kids are run at our location. To find out more about our educational programs, call or visit Kookaburra Community Child Care today.

Mackay Christian College Early Learning Centre is a place where each child in our care can develop a love of learning. We aim to create a nourishing Centre that is rich in culture and where the curriculum is enhanced with a variety of information. We work together with parents to provide the more formal part of a child's education. Our purpose is to help every child to ‘become all they can to be.' We believe that children are capable young people who have been learning since birth and are able to take part purposefully in, and contribute to, their learning. They are capable of knowing truth about themselves and their world and they enjoy engaging in life and learning.

We believe learning is celebrating discovery, enjoyment and ability, ensuring the acquisition of knowledge on every level. We believe children need to experience trials and tribulations as they learn. We understand creating opportunities for success strengthens this process, therefore changing what we know and building on what we do as individuals. Knowing, valuing and cultivating diverse material, inspires the learning process and facilitates the fundamental instincts of the child. Allowing opportunities for lifelong learning to occur.
