Head start center

Amazing staff, amazing facilities.They go above and beyond to make you and your child feel comfortable and safe. I never worry about my child falling behind or not having fun and she is always happy when we pull up in the car park .

Both my children attend the centre. I couldn't be more pleased with the high quality care that they receive. The staff are engaged with the children and know exactly where they are in the social and emotional development and how to develop each little person individually.The environments are outstanding and the children have access to indoor and outdoor play continuously. My older daughter loves the creek yard and I love that she can choose to be outside all day including naps if she so chooses.The way they approach the day with the calm transitions helps support the childrens self regulation and I see this being translated at home. My children now know when their body is tierd or hungry and they independently self regulate. This is down to the wonderful curriculum offered at Harmony.

If you’re looking for an great French school, where everybody is welcoming and your child is genuinely cared for, then La Grande Récré is the place for you. The team of staff, led by Steve, are totally awesome! I recommend you check it out and look beyond the ‘old school’ exterior.

Kumon Gungahlin is great for the kids English and maths learning. Both the directors(Daniella and Sue) and staff are super friendly and caring. Highly recommended.

I am a grandparent who takes my 4 year old grandson to the Ready Steady Go classes at Ashburton. We have been going together for 2 years and I love going as much as my grandson does. The concept is brilliant with the children learning many different sporting codes. It is amazing how much my grandson has developed and learnt as well has becoming more confident in not only the ability to throw, catch, hit and run but listening and obeying rules. David and Louise exceed all expectations with the encouragement, care and kindness they show to all the children. The children learn but above all they have fun. I highly recommend this great concept at Ashburton Ready Steady Go Kids.

Our daughter has been attending Harmony's nursery room since Feb 2021 and we could not be happier. I feel the educators genuinely care about my child's development and wellbeing, and are always happy to help in any way they can to support this. I honestly have only positive things to say about this centre and think everything there has been excellent so far: facilities, staff, menu, communication, family involvement events, everything. We love it. THANK YOU, Harmony Family!!

As a staff member of this service I cannot praise enough the endless efforts, passion and love that is put into ensuring high quality practices, environments and engagements are offered to children and families each day. The children have a strong sense of belonging in a centre that is a home away from home, families are welcomed with open arms and staff are valued for all their contributions.

My son attended La Grande Recre since he was 2 and absolutely loved it. Now in Prep, he is bilingual. We are also very grateful for all the structured activities the staff organised for the kids. Unlike traditional kindergartens in Australia, LGR offers a more structured environment with set routines. We are grateful for this approach as it provided our son with the opportunity to acquire essential life skills and develop discipline, which will undoubtedly benefit him in his future endeavors. Steve and the staff have been an invaluable source of support. We are sincerely grateful for their efforts and the personal attention they have given to our son's growth. Highly recommend LGR!

We had an amazing 2 terms with them and from a boy who was not interested in sports at all to him wanting to one day becoming a professional player, ready steady go kids have played a pivotal role in shaping my son. David and Louise are absolute superstars and will highly recommend them to every parent. The classes give a great introduction to different types of sports and provide the necessary confidence to the kids so that they enjoy sports and not just play because they are being asked to.

Fantastic sports program ! My kids have loved going to ready steady go classes at Ashburton. David and his team of coaches are wonderful - super encouraging, patient, creative and above all, they make sports super fun for the kids.We've been going for the last 3 years with my two sons and they absolutely enjoy it. During the week, they love showing dad some of the sporting activities & skills they've been learning, like their 'muscle man' throws and 'sausage in bread' AFL passes.The kids confidence levels have been boosted at least tenfold. My youngest was very shy when he first started, very clingy and not wanting to participate. But the coaches were wonderful, always positive and encouraging. And they made each part of the activities so fun and engaging - from warm up, to learning new sporting skills and the obstacle courses - that not before long, my son come out of his shell. Now l think he is probably one of the more rowdy ones in class LOL !!Superb coaches, extremely dedicated, enthusiastic and encouraging. David and his team of wonderful coaches, have laid a solid foundation for my kids as they now embark on a lifetime of healthy activity & sporting pursuits.
