Our Programmes

From first steps to school-ready

Three class stages for babies and toddlers, three for nursery school — plus aftercare, holiday club and a full menu of extra-murals.

Ages 0–2

Baby & Toddler Centre

Our centre has been caring for precious little ones for over 50 years. Tiny babies to two-year-olds are grouped into three classes by developmental stage, each led by a qualified teacher and a team of trained assistants.

Small groups mean we work around each baby's individual schedule, with care ratios of 4:1 for babies and 6:1 for toddlers. The atmosphere is happy and relaxed, full of warmth, love and nurturing.

Tiny babies

Babies

Gentle encouragement in the baby gym, tummy time on the cushions, and fresh air in their very own little playground.

Walking babies

Owls

For our wobbly-on-their-feet explorers who still need lots of guidance — encouraged with patience and kindness.

Busy toddlers

Bunnies

Toddlers are busy! Learning happens by doing, not by being told — with plenty of movement and hands-on play.

Ages 3–5

Nursery School

Learning through play is what nursery school is all about. Each class follows our Best Beginnings Curriculum, designed for its developmental stage.

Turning 3

Hedgehog Class

Life skills that lay the foundations for emotionally balanced, independent and confident children.

Turning 4

Squirrel Class

Language, music and social discovery. Our three-almost-fours spend more time observing the world and paying attention to others.

Turning 5

Bear Class

Skill-building through play before big school — ending with a graduation ceremony and each child decorating a tile as their Wonderland legacy.

Afternoons & School Holidays

Aftercare & Holiday Club

Our educational programme runs until lunchtime; afternoons are for playing, laughing and having fun outside with friends (weather permitting). Mid- and late-afternoon snacks keep tummies happy until supper.

In the holidays, every day brings something different — making our own pizzas, touching interesting creepy crawlies, PJ days and more. Best of all: holiday care costs nothing extra.

  • Aftercare available for children attending other schools in the mornings
  • Holiday club open to non-Wonderland children too
  • Open all year except three weeks over Christmas

Extra-Murals

Movement, music and more

Two programmes are built into school fees; the rest are optional extras run by trusted long-standing providers.

Included in school fees

Kwanda Kids

Music

A weekly music programme boosting sensory development, literacy, numeracy, coordination and vocabulary.

Optional extras

Karate 4 Kids

With Stuart Hulley — teaching at Wonderland for over 30 years.

Ballet

Graceful first steps — building posture, balance, coordination and confidence through the joy of dance.

Swimming

30-minute lessons in a heated indoor pool, 2–4 swimmers per instructor, with safe transport and photos for parents.
