Welcome to Gamumbi (that’s derived from ‘children’ in Gumbaynggirr)
A child safe early childhood education and care centre, that’s community based and not-for-profit.
Our approach to learning and care
At the heart of Gamumbi is relationships.
Relationships with children, family, community and our environment.
In our care children will play outside, get their hands dirty, learn using real-life experiences, and have relaxing indoor spaces. They’ll make friends, discover new skills, and feel safe, happy and heard.
Enchanting spaces for your child
At Gamumbi we believe that a child’s environment is their third teacher. We lovingly create learning spaces that invite children to explore, be curious, make discoveries, and develop relationships.
Our indoor spaces consist of peaceful rooms where children feel right at home as they engage in learning. A large outdoor nature play space provides opportunity to experience the seasons, navigate challenging physical environments, and create important connections to nature.
High quality educators with many years of experience
Our passionate educators are highly trained, with diverse skills to share. They weave these skills naturally into our program, encouraging children to ask questions, try new things and explore their own talents as they play.
