Inviting resources and
Environments
Cubby provides the latest and most advanced equipment resources, combined with vibrant environments that encourage a warm and enjoyable atmosphere for everyone.
Community Partnerships
We adopt a partnership approach to our relationships with school communities. We listen, we are flexible, and we commit to working with schools, parents, and P&Cs to be a genuine partner.
We regularly make meaningful donations to our school communities, and have in recent times made financial contributions to school infrastructure upgrades, designed and donated playscapes on school grounds, provided our time, skills and energy to community events, and also provided employment opportunities at our services to community members.
We also purchase supplies and resources for our services from local community sources where possible.
Nutrition
We serve a range of locally community sourced nutritious food daily, including fresh fruit, vegetables, and water. We also encourage learning in the area of nutrition via regular cooking classes in our program.
Good nutrition is essential to a child’s health, growth and development. All food that is served takes into account children’s likes and dislikes, dietary requirements, and any cultural requirements.
Experience
As one of the pioneering and longest-established Early Learning Centres and Out of School Hours Care providers, our expertise and experience in providing outstanding service to our students and school communities is unmatched.
Throughout our 43 years of operation, we have served more than 50 schools and over 10,000 students. Our unique position in the industry allows us to be large and experienced enough to guarantee quality, yet small enough to genuinely care.
Cubby stands as one of the largest and most seasoned providers of Early Learning Centres and Out of School Hours Care in Australia.
Proudly independent and privately owned, Cubby was established in 1984 and has been a trailblazer in the industry for over 43 years.
If you're seeking a provider with unmatched experience and a commitment to innovation and quality – look no further than Cubby.
Quality and Safety
We believe there is no upper limit when it comes to quality and safety – we offer the highest standards of both for students in our care, facilitated by our highly trained team members and a dedicated Quality Manager.
Our exceptional educators create a safe, friendly and nurturing environment for children to learn and play.
Cubby OOSH services are fully compliant with all educational standards and practices. Our programs are built on the experience of a well-educated team, and our in-service carers are highly experienced and maintain regular ongoing training to ensure that all of our facilities remain operated at a consistently high standard.
Regulations state the OOSH Services must have 1 Educator for every 15 students. However, Cubby believes that to ensure the safety of children in our care, a minimum of 2 Educators must be on duty even if the number of students is below 15.
We have remained proudly independent and privately owned throughout our history – unlike many large providers – and we are under no pressure to sacrifice quality for profit or growth targets.
Programs and Education
We firmly believe that every student deserves to be active and engaged while they are with us – our programs and resources are crafted with this conviction at the forefront.
Our programs are developed by a team of highly qualified and experienced professionals, alongside regular feedback from parents and students, ensuring that activities are well-planned and resources are readily available to fulfill their needs and interests.
From extracurricular activities to educational resources, activity stations, and a variety of free choice/open play areas equipped with the latest tools, our services are designed to support a diverse range of activities that cater to all children in our care.
