About Us

“It takes a village to raise a child” – African Proverb.

We are family...

At Willow Tree Kindergarten & WTK OSHC, we are committed to providing exceptional education and care in a warm, welcoming environment where every child and family feels a true sense of belonging.

Many of our educators have been part of the Willow Tree family for many years, providing the consistency and trusted relationships that help children feel safe, secure, and supported, making Willow Tree a true home away from home.

As a proudly local provider, we are passionate about supporting our communities through strong partnerships with local schools, families, and community organisations.

"It takes a village to raise a child" - African Proverb.

We are all about helping you find your village, encouraging one another and opening our village to others!

We believe a community of people can interact wholeheartedly for your children to experience and grow, learning from one another and adding value to your children’s lives.

As a collective, we can encourage children to be active participants in their own learning.

Our warm, friendly atmosphere and our stimulating and creative learning environments harness your child’s potential in all areas of development.

Seedlings Nature School

Our ‘Seedlings’ Nature School was established in October 2020! It has been a dream of Willow Tree for some time now to offer an outdoor program for our children.

We have the wonderful opportunity to partner with The Australian Botanical Gardens, Mount Annan who have tailored a personalised experience for our Willow Tree Children.

Children who attend on Mondays can be involved in the program which includes adventure, learning, messy play, climbing, discovering, and be treated to beautiful wildlife encounters and flora sensory experiences.

Our ‘SEEDLINGS’ program runs in the Spring and Autumn Months – For more information on our Nature School please contact Miss Sara at the service

Philosophy

We strive to provide a setting with heart, soul and passion for learning of the world and each other. We encourage children to think and act in meaningful ways and to make a difference for our community and our world. At the very foundations of our practices, Children’s developmental needs are met in the most wonderous ways; through play, magical experiences, exploration and wonder.
