Active Kids World Square

Active Kids World Square (City) centres are located in the heart of the Sydney CBD and can be accessed via World Square and World Tower. Our centre has been operating for 15 years and is driven by a strong, dedicated team of long serving educators. Our centre coordinator, Evelyn Frawley, has worked with Active Kids World Square since February 2011. Each member of staff is committed to providing the highest level of Early Childhood Education. Our dedicated and passionate educators strive to assist each individual child to develop holistically in an inviting, caring and structured environment. Through effective and strong partnerships with families we provide a curriculum based on the children’s interest and love of learning.

Active Kids World Square and World Tower have recently been rated “Exceeding” National Quality Standards by the Australian Children’s Education & Care Quality Authority (ACECQA).

We provide breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner and cater for all dietary requirements.

Active Kids City provides a range of extra-curricular activities throughout the year. Our Learn and Grow team consist of French classes, Drama and Dance and Fitness classes. We also implement ELLA – Early Learning Languages Australia – ELLA is a fun, digital, play-based language learning program for children in preschool. It helps children to become more comfortable with different languages early in life so that they can stay engaged with learning languages in later years. This year the preschool children are focusing on Indonesian.  We also offer a Bath Time service for Nursery aged children.

We also use our own parent communication app. Designed exclusively for all families at Active Kids Group. Our secure parent portal, facilitates effortless parent involvement at all times. This is a great tool for parents to help track children’s progress and offer input and feedback in relation to their child’s learning.

The Active Kids Group app is designed to enable parents to participate holistically in their child’s experience through photos, notes and stories. Through a secure and private log-in, parents gain access to snapshots of the day, which complements the personal interaction at the centre.

We engage with our local community and encourage visits from the Navy, Police, Fire and Rescue along with dentists, doctors and members of the aboriginal community. We invite a number of external incursions to come and visit our service including Reptile shows, Braveheart’s and Bandage Bear. We also bring the children on excursions to events such as NAIDOC in the Park, Lunar New Year in World Square and also to Castlereagh Fire Station where the children get a chance to meet members of the CBD community first hand.

We also celebrate a variety of different events throughout the year which reflect all our World Square families’ backgrounds and the surrounding community.
