Beresfield Community Children’s Education Centre provides a safe space for children to learn and grow. We embrace the early years of a child’s life and give the children in our care the confidence they require to foster relationships, develop communication skills, and acquire the autonomy and independence required for the successful transition to ‘big school’.
From an early age we extend on each child’s interests through play-based learning experiences that are both spontaneous and intentional. We strive to create environments that foster learning and enhance life, skills such as sustainability and resilience.
The Beresfield Community Children’s Education Centre is a fully accredited long day care centre, providing quality baby, toddler and pre-school programs for 59 children. The Centre caters for children with special needs and is operated by Newcastle City Council.
The Centre has full kitchen facilities and provides a two course meal for lunch and morning and afternoon tea for each child. This often includes children with specific dietary requirements.
Allergies and Medical Conditions
Beresfield Community Childcare caters for the individual needs of all children. To assist us in ensuring that your child’s individual needs are met we ask that families who have children with medical conditions and allergies become familiar with our medical conditions policy. As per centre policies and legal requirements children with asthma and anaphylaxis must have an action plan which is updated yearly. Alongside of this a risk minimisation plan and allergy forms must be completed.
