Victorian Government-approved Kindergarten program
At our Springvale early learning centre, we proudly offer a Victorian Government-funded Kindergarten program led by qualified Bachelor-trained Early Childhood Teachers. This approved program nurtures your child’s development, preparing them for school and lifelong learning. Children aged 3 and 4 may be eligible for up to 15 hours of free kindergarten each week, for 40 weeks of the year. Speak to us about how this can help lower your family’s childcare expenses.
As part of our commitment to preparing children for the transition to school, we organise visits to the local school and invite teachers from local primary schools to spend time with the children in the kindergarten environment. This provides children with the opportunity to become familiar with the school setting and build relationships with their future teachers. By offering these experiences, we help children feel confident and supported as they approach this important milestone.
Key benefits of our kindergarten offering include:
- Long daycare hours to support working families
- Operates year-round (excluding public holidays)
- Programs created and delivered by qualified early education professionals
- Access to our dedicated music and movement program to support self-regulation
Inclusive support for every child
At Springvale 2 World of Learning, we tailor our programs using the approved frameworks to support each child’s individual learning journey. Our monthly planning cycle incorporates children’s interests, family input, and developmental goals to ensure all children are engaged, supported, and challenged through intentional, inclusive experiences. Each child has an individual learning plan, and families receive regular updates via Xplor.
For children with additional needs or those learning English as an additional language, we work closely with external agencies such as the Kindergarten Inclusion Support Program (KIS), Yooralla, and Monash Health through School Readiness Funding. These partnerships help us provide tailored strategies and resources to support communication, participation, and development across all areas of learning.

Frequently asked questions
A centre tour is a convenient way to experience the childcare centre of your choice and meet with our qualified educators at a time that is suitable for your family’s schedule. Click here to book a tour online.
On the day of the tour, you can observe practices and interactions within the centre environment. You’ll be able to see all the rooms and playgrounds, ask the team members any questions you have in mind, and get all the information you need to make the best decision for your child.
Enrolling is simple, and our Family Support Team will guide you through each step.
First, find your local centre and book a tour so you can meet the team and explore the learning environment. If the centre is the right fit and a place is available, you’ll receive an enrolment offer for your child. If a place is not currently available in your child’s age group, we can add your child to the waitlist and keep you updated.
To finalise your enrolment, you’ll complete an online enrolment form through a secure link sent by our Family Support Team. You’ll also need to provide key details and documents, including your child’s birth certificate, Medicare details, immunisation history statement and, if eligible, your Child Care Subsidy details.
Before your child’s first day, you may be invited to attend a Stay and Play session. This gives your child time to explore the centre, meet their educators, and start feeling comfortable in their new environment. Once your paperwork is complete, your child is ready to start their early learning journey with us.
Starting child care is a big milestone, and a little preparation can help your child feel more comfortable and confident.
Before your child’s first day, you can talk positively about their new centre, explain what their day might look like, and practise small routines such as packing their bag, saying goodbye, washing hands and sitting down for meals. You may also like to visit the centre with your child, meet their educators and ask our team about what to bring on the first day.
When your child starts, our educators will take the time to get to know your child’s routine, interests, comfort items and individual needs. Settling in looks different for every child, so we work closely with families to help children feel safe, supported and ready to learn.
Most of our child care and early education centres offer nappies and wipes, sunscreen and hats, as well as nutritious meals prepared by our in-house cook. Some centres also provide sheets and formula, so you may not need to remember to pack them.
For nursery children, be sure to bring: nappy rash cream, dummies, bottles and teats, comfort toys or blankets, three spare outfits and spare socks.
For toddlers and preschool or kindergarten-aged children, it’s best to bring: spare underwear, water bottle or sippy cup, sun hat, closed-toe shoes, two spare outfits and spare socks.
Plus, anything else your individual child may need, such as breast milk, a sleeping bag, a comforter or medication.
It’s best to speak to your centre of choice for a full list of everything included.
World of Learning uses Xplor Home as our family communication app. It is the best and easiest way to keep track of your child’s day.
After you enrol your child with the centre, you can utilise Xplor Home to book child care days, manage your account, receive the photographs that capture your child’s learning, learn about your child’s progress, as well as keep up-to-date with upcoming centre events and important information.
If your child shows signs of an infectious illness when they arrive at the centre or becomes sick during the day, you may be notified that you need to make alternative arrangements or pick up your child from the centre and keep them home until they are no longer infectious. While we understand that this can be inconvenient, World of Learning is committed to maintaining a healthy environment and reducing the risk of infection for all children.
Under the Child Care Subsidy (CCS), families are allowed 42 absence days per child, per financial year. These can be taken for any reason, including public holidays and when children are sick, without requiring families to provide documentation.
