Orchard Early Learning Centre Kirrawee

Every since the first phone call and first visit, the staff and educators have been warm, caring and supportive.  My son has adored coming to this centre and has made many wonderful friends and has grown, developed and been nurtured by the fantastic staff.  During COVID the centre was professional and always communicated to parents the process and new changes are they were informed themselves so I never felt as though I need to chase information or worry about safety for my son.
The hours are nice and long so very handy for working parents, especially those that need to commute.
The centre has a wonderful kitchen and great meals for the children which encourages even the most fussy of eaters plus a great outdoor area which is a huge highlight for us!
We love Orchard!!!

Where can I start?

I had a very complicated and very last minute enrolment and this would have been my third Child Center in another state.

They were informative and descriptive and prompt. From the administration to the rooms and educators to the frowns keepers and everyone else I may have missed.

This facility offers a place of warmth, care and structure. Oh they even hold parent workshops too!
All inclusive. The team at Orchard, you guys rock!

My daughter loves this school and the relationships she has formed a has been very beautiful.
We are having there little Christmas doo tomorrow and she is very excited and so are we.

Educators are lovely but the management and more senior staff are very unprofessional. We were promised so much when we went to the opening and open day about the app and all the educational programmes etc but this wasn't what we experienced.

The app doesn't work and the information captured is incorrect! When you pick your child up in the afternoon none of the staff can give you a clear or accurate answer. There are too many educators or casual staff working with your child that people don't actually know how long my child slept of whether she ate all her food etc. Again if the app worked then we wouldn't need to know this information. In 1yr of being with Orchard we got 2 pieces of artwork that our daughter had done. Nothing else. No other information on what they had learnt or what other activities they had done.

We addressed these issues early on to the centre directors and to this day we still haven't had any calls or emails from anyone. Lack of service in general is the common theme and zero accountability from anyone.

Oh and try get your bond back when you leave! Took more than 30 days!

When I started looking for a daycare for my first born I honestly didn't think i was going to find somewhere i would be 100% ok with in all areas until I came across about Orchard Early Learning Centre!
The staff/educators go above and beyond, they are all extremely friendly and welcome you with open arms!

The centre is always kept in such excellent condition, the meals that they provide daily for the children are second to none!
The lines of communication are amazing! We are kept informed on everything that is going on with their little one and within the centre itself.

They have made starting daycare for my son a breeze!
I can't recommend this centre enough :)

Edit: This is a reflection of my review back in November, as I have now pulled my child out of this centre. While I do believe the centre is wonderful and the staff are exceptional.. I believe they are lacking leadership, planning, routine, and overall the communication between staff and parents. An incident happened with my child, two days in a row and when I asked staff what happened with the first incident, I was told they didn't know or see anything. When the second incident happened the next day, we wrote an email asking them what happened. We were informed that Koh, the director would be in contact with us for a follow up, which she never did and we found this very disappointing and felt as if our child was insignificant. Numerous instances had accumulated, leaving us worried and disappointed but this was the nail in the coffin which made us decide to pull our child out and enrol in a different, and smaller centre. We know accidents happen, kids are rough, what worries me is the lack of communication between staff and what seems to be lack of supervision with so many children enrolled. Overall, we loved the staff, but in the year and a half that my child was attending, he bought home 5 pieces of art, no portfolio or programming and came home sunburnt on multiple occasions. They also lost his sleep comforter. So I am forced to adjust my rating as overall it wasn't a great experience.

Original:
My son has been attending this wonderful centre since it opened it's doors. The centre is one of a kind with state of the art facilities, such as the whole outdoor area which has a garden, chickens, stingless bees and the tractor. The food which they provide is also a cut above the rest, as our 3 year old was a picky eater before attending and they have helped improve his diet immensely. All the wonderful educators, and staff are always so friendly, patient and well informed with practices. They not only provide care for the children, but a quality education too.
