About the Centre

Communities at Work’s Appletree House Child Care and Education Centre is located in Wanniassa ACT. Our centre is segregated into three rooms – Infants Room (aged birth to 2 years), Toddler Room (aged 2 to 3 years) and the Preschool Room (aged 3 to 5 years). This arrangement allows children to engage in their own routine and develop strong and trustworthy relationships with their peers. At the same time, our large outdoor space and shared dining area provide opportunities for children to interact across the centre and explore social connections.

Why Choose Us

Appletree House Child Care and Education Centre provides children with convenient access to the community. Educators regularly take the children to the library, the playground, the oval, and even the centre’s ‘sister-service’ Illoura Child Care and Education Centre. This fosters relationship-building, learning about the community, and social skills for the children.

As part of Appletree’s commitment to Communities at Work’s Reconciliation Action Plan (RAP), the educators and children at Appletree have developed a centre-specific Acknowledgement of Country, in collaboration with the children and educators at our Illoura Child Care and Education Centre. Every day at 10 AM, the children and educators meet at their Meeting Place around the sandpit and engage in the Acknowledgment.

Educators at Appletree House also regularly help the children engage in activities such as cooking, nurturing herb gardens, baking goods and developing ‘tyre gardens’ while learning about the environment and sustainability.
