At Edge Port Adelaide, our commitment lies in empowering children to learn, grow, and develop according to their unique abilities and preferences. We aim to be respectful of the natural environment and improve learning outcomes as we educate children about the world around them. Our teaching philosophy is based on inquiry, enabling children to explore their environment and develop confidence as learners.
Emphasising cultural and community ties, we integrate these values into our educational approach, aiming for a brighter collective future. Our team is devoted to nurturing strong relationships with families through transparent communication.
We welcome you to join us for a tour centre and look forward to collaborating with you to ensure we achieve the best outcomes for your child.
Edge Early Learning Port Adelaide is open for long daycare hours and provides quality education and childcare for children aged six weeks to school age. Our childcare centre is conveniently located at the Port Adelaide Plaza Shopping Centre, easily accessed through an external entrance next to Bendigo Bank.
We are passionate about the health and wellbeing of your children at our Port Adelaide childcare centre, which is why our program promotes healthy eating and active lifestyles. Our learning spaces have been custom designed to provide a calming and engaging space for children. All kindergarten classrooms are filled with quality resources and intentional learning experiences to foster a love of learning in our children. Our outdoor spaces have been designed around the natural elements and are equipped with bike tracks, sandpits, an in-ground trampoline, waterplay and a climbing fort.
Our play-based learning guides children towards achieving development goals, including building a sense of identity, wellbeing, and are confident learners. The Educational program is child-led using our inquiry-based approach, which encourages children to pose questions, hypothesise, and investigate. Participating in inquiry-based experiences provides opportunities for children to develop a sense of identity and sets them up for a successful transition to school.
We hold free sensory classes every 3rd Friday of the month from 10 am to 11 am. You can enjoy sensory activities with your baby and our qualified Educators whilst connecting with other local families.
Spaces are limited, please call ahead to book your session; 08 8317 5382.
