Journey Early Learning Centre Burwood is where your child’s journey begins. Our Early Learning Centre provides intentional learning opportunities daily with a focus on literacy and numeracy, language, life skills, music and rhythm, and more. Our Government Approved Funded Kindergarten Program ensures children from three-years-old are prepared for their journey to school. Journey Burwood is purpose-built and is located opposite St Scholastica’s Catholic Primary School, just off the Burwood Highway on Starling Street.
Our Curriculum
Journey Burwood’s Educational and Developmental Curriculum is developed from the Early Learning Framework and the Victorian Early Years Learning Curriculum, based on the individual child’s interests, strengths, family expectations and professional intent. In addition to daily learning experiences, we provide a weekly Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Maths Program (STEAM), and throughout the week the children participate in regular outings, excursions and incursions such as Sports Program and a Music Program.
We collaborate closely with families through day-to-day professional conversations and hold parent-teacher interviews. Our parents stay informed and connected to their child’s progression with daily program evaluations and learning using our Storypark communication platform.
Preparing children for school
In order to ensure every child is prepared for school, our Kindergarten classrooms are intentionally designed by our Teachers to align with the Journey Standards and the Early Years Learning Framework and Curriculum. Our Government Approved Funded 3 and 4-Year-Old Kindergarten Classrooms are run by ACCEQA approved Early Childhood Teachers and Qualified Educators. Children enrolling in our 4-Year-Old Kinder Program are provided with ongoing support from teachers in preparation for school through our School Readiness Program.

Hello! I’m Thalia.
With nearly a decade of experience in childcare, time has truly flown by! As a Centre Manager, my key interests lie in supporting our fantastic team of educators to deliver the best Early Years education and experiences for the children. Building strong relationships with both the children and their families is at the heart of what I do.
When it comes to working with families in our service, I believe in creating a solid partnership between myself, our incredible educators, and the families. We all share the same goal of providing the best Early Years care and education, and together, we can make this a wonderful experience for everyone involved.

Exploring nature-based play
Children love getting out and exploring in nature. It really is the greatest teacher. Nature based play is a core part of our curriculum. That’s because it teaches them vital life skills including confidence, independence, exploration and cooperation. Playing outside also promotes health and wellbeing and teaches them respect for the environment.
