The Early Learning Centre operates between 7.30am and 6pm Monday to Friday. The Centre is closed on public holidays and for approximately two weeks over Christmas.
Charnwood ELC welcomes children between the ages of four months and five years. The fees include all meals (morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea and late snack) and nappies (for T1, T2 and T3). BCC is only able to offer full-day rates, however, children are not required to attend for the full day if this does not suit the family. Families are offered flexible attendance options at the Charnwood ELC. This allows you to choose which days suit your family's needs, with a minimum booking requirement of only two days per week.
The Early Learning Centres operate as a long day care registered provider, parents will have access to the Childcare Subsidy (CCS). More information on eligibility and the rates of CCS can be found on https://www.servicesaustralia.gov.au

Introduction
Our Charnwood Early Learning Centre caters for children from 4 months to 5 years of age. Our centre includes four rooms: T1 (infants 4m-1), T2 (infants/toddlers 1-2), T3 (two/three-year-old) and Preschool (3- to 5-year-olds).
Curriculum
BCC Early Learning Centre is committed to providing an excellent early learning curriculum and is highly structured, intentional and focused. The curriculum builds on the children’s interests, strengths, capabilities, culture, developmental needs and experiences to reflect the Early Learning Centre philosophy and the Brindabella Christian College values and ethos. Community is also at the centre of what we do. We organise community engagement learning programs including excursions and educational visits to support the learning program.
Our educational program aspires to be a cycle of reflection, planning, implementation and evaluation. Each step depends on the other and the best educational experiences are provided for the children when these steps are working in conjunction.
