Early Childhood Centre

About Us

Bright Bears has been purpose built as a child’s education centre and was opened in 1999.  Our licence is for a maximum number of 25 children per session.  There are currently four teachers employed.  The building is on one level allowing disabled access.  The main teaching room is divided into a general play area, a painting area, various craft tables (with a different activity per session), a family play area, pets corner, library area (including books and puzzles) and a lockers area.

Outside, there is an activity play-ground including a climbing frame and slide. There is also a sand pit, pirate ship, play-house and additional activities laid out depending on the session age group and time of year.  The outside area is fully fenced with a security gate from our parent’s car-park to the preschool.

Starting Your Child At Bright Bears

Upon enrolment, we encourage you to come to the centre and stay for short periods of time to acclimatize your child.  This allows our staff, your child and our other children to become acquainted before your child’s official starting day.  We encourage a parent to say goodbye to their child, and to explain that they will return shortly.  Parents are welcome to stay with their child for however long is needed.
