About Gowrie NSW
Gowrie NSW is a not-for-profit provider with more than 85 years of experience delivering high-quality early childhood education and care across NSW and the ACT. As a not-for-profit, everything we do is guided by one priority: children. Every dollar we earn is reinvested where it matters most: into our educators, our learning environments and the children and families we care for.
"We can't wait to become part of the St Leonards community," said Nicole Jones, CEO of Gowrie NSW. "Audrey will be a place where children feel safe and known, families feel genuinely welcome, and every day is full of meaningful learning."
At the heart of the experience for your child and family is the relationship with your primary educator. Each child is supported by one dedicated teacher or educator who takes the time to truly know them: their personality, their routines, their interests and what makes them feel good.
That consistent, caring relationship is what helps children settle, thrive and grow. University-qualified teachers will lead every room, bringing a play-based learning program informed by the national Early Years Learning Framework.
Families can also look forward to nutritious meals prepared fresh on site, a dedicated preschool program to support the transition to school, and a secure online platform to stay connected to their child's day.
Gowrie NSW is a proud, Child Safe organisation who believe every child has the right to feel safe, respected, and heard. Gowrie is committed to creating environments where children can thrive - free from harm, supported by strong relationships, and surrounded by people who care deeply about their wellbeing.
Expressions of Interest are now welcomed. Families are warmly invited to get in touch, join a waitlist, and be among the first to visit when the doors open.
