Early Childhood Education and Care
At Newcastle Anglican, we understand early intervention and care shape a child’s future, laying the foundation for healthy development.
Early learning opportunities are the building blocks for future growth, behaviour, and wellbeing in children. They support a positive transition into schools and foster educational achievement.
To support those critical years of a child’s early learning and development, we have four Early Learning Centres (ELCs) across Newcastle Anglican that provide quality early learning and pathways into school— The Yellow Cottage Scone Grammar School preschool, Bishop Tyrrell Anglican College preschool, Newcastle Early Learning Centre, and Woodbury Early Learning Centre.
The Yellow Cottage Scone Grammar School Preschool
Provides an inspiring environment for children to develop the skills and qualities needed to flourish in all aspects of life, including school.
