Auburn Preschool
Integricare’s early learning education centre at Auburn, in partnership with Auburn Baptist church, provides a preschool service perfect for children aged 3-5 years. We offer a preschool curriculum operating in accordance with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). This provides crucial early learning development and a School Readiness Program for attending children – ensuring that the transition to primary school is socially and academically smooth. Auburn Preschool operates from 8:10 am-3:30 pm and offers 40 places for children.
Auburn Christian Preschool champions Integricare’s purpose of enabling children, families and communities to experience the love of Jesus, as well as Integricare’s core mission objectives. Firstly, the pursuit of excellence in early learning ensures that these most crucial developmental years for children are full of learning opportunities. Secondly, Auburn staff endeavour to equip and care for families holistically – going the extra mile to engage and support children’s long day care and their families. Thirdly, Auburn Preschool prioritises community engagement, regularly partnering with local initiatives and maintaining close ties to Auburn Baptist Church.
Our qualified educators help to provide children with every opportunity to thrive. These care services include extending their language, literacy and numeracy, teaching them to be creative and to take initiative, and bolstering their confidence and independence as well as their social aptitude amongst their peers. All of Christian early childhood education sets children up for a successful transition into primary school.
Teaching kids to count is fine, but teaching them what counts is best.

Our Individualised & Faith-Based Approach to Christian early Childhood Education
Our early education centre at Auburn Christian Preschool operates in partnership with Auburn Baptist Church and our dedicated team of educators come from a range of cultural backgrounds, all passionate about ‘going the extra mile’ for children.
Highly qualified and experienced staff provide an individualised educational program that aims to meet the diverse needs of all children who attend. An inclusive curriculum aims to ensure that each child in the centre is fully involved in the program. Parents are encouraged to participate in the program by volunteering at the childcare and communicating the expectations for their child’s learning with staff. The children learn through play and interest-based activities that are developmentally appropriate for each child’s age. Each class has a day book where families can read what the children have done during the day. An individual portfolio is provided for each child where staff document children’s individual experiences and learning at the centre. Our literacy program is designed to build on children’s home and community literacy experiences. It includes literacy practices that are relevant to children’s everyday lives as well as familiar texts from their homes and communities.
