Our Teachers & Educators
~Higher qualifications equal a higher quality service and higher quality education~
Ninety per cent of a child's brain development occurs in the first five years of their life, making it a critical window for early education as they develop new skills and explore new learning opportunities.
O’Connell St Little Academics ELCeducators understand the importance of this and strive to achieve excellent and valuable learning experiences daily through intentional and play based learning.
The educators are passionate and committed to the learning and development of young children. They are guided by the Early Years Learning Framework and National Quality Framework. They have developed in-depth and individualised learning programs that are catered to each age group. Our Early Childhood Educators are fully qualified, very experienced and extremely dedicated to their roles.
The Centre Director is an experienced Primary School Teacher with both Private and International Teaching experience. She has taught children of preschool age all the way through to grade 6.
The Educational Leader has over 10 years of experience in working in Early Childhood.
Our educators are motivated by the curiosity and wonder of young children about the world around them and are driven by this to cater to their emotional, social and intellectual needs; viewing the child as a whole.
Our service highly values continued professional learning and development - we hold regular professional development training and a high number of our Educators are furthering their own individal studies.

Message From the Director
My passion is guiding young children to achieve an appreciation of education and self, through meaningful and intentional teaching. I am motivated by high-quality learning through inquiry; questioning, prompting and scaffolding where children are driven by the desire to explore not to collect knowledge. I act as a role model for children in instilling a growth mindset and the values of honor, courage, trust and compassion. I accomplish this through positive reinforcement, respect and kindness. I practice tolerance for their culture, heritage, diversity, their various learning styles and prior knowledge by viewing the child as whole; they are belonging, being and becoming. I invite family members of the children and the community to share their experiences. I am encouraged by Vygotsky’s theories that stress the fundamental role of social interaction in the development of cognition and his belief that community plays a central role in the process of “making meaning”. (Vygotsky, 1978). I strive to achieve a safe, inclusive and secure environment, where each student has the desire to learn.
