Early Learning Centre | Winanga-li Aboriginal Services

Gulbiyaay !

At Winanga-li, we believe every child deserves a strong start in life - one that celebrates culture, builds confidence and nurtures belonging.

Our Early Learning & Care Service provides a safe, inclusive and culturally rich environment where children can explore, grow and feel proud of who they are.

We welcome children aged 6 weeks to 5 years and offer a range of programs designed to support early learning, connection and family wellbeing.

Our Philosophy

At Winanga-li, our philosophy is guided by respect, care and community.

We see each child, family and educator as an important part of our learning journey.

‍

Our Children

Children learn best when they feel safe, supported and valued. We create a nurturing environment where they can take on new challenges, explore their capabilities and build confidence through play and discovery.

‍

Our Families

Families are a child’s first teachers. We build strong, respectful partnerships with families, working together to support every child’s growth and wellbeing. Our open communication helps create a sense of trust, connection and shared purpose.

‍

Our Educators

Our educators are committed professionals who bring warmth, creativity and cultural knowledge to every day. We value teamwork, ongoing learning and the strengths each educator brings to our service.

‍

Our Community

Winanga-li is a place of belonging for our whole community. We honour culture, celebrate diversity and advocate for our children, families and the local Gunnedah community.

‍

Nurturing and Nutrition

We believe children need nurturing in mind, body and spirit.

Our educators provide a safe and caring environment, adapting to each child’s needs and supporting healthy development.

Nutritious meals are freshly prepared onsite, and individual dietary requirements are always respected. Our menus are guided and approved by Munch & Move.
