Holy Family Early Learning Centre
Holy Family has been caring for the families and children of Marayong since 1954 through the dedicated and professional service of the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth. Our Early Learning Centre was opened in 2009 with our dedicated team continuing to uphold the mission, vision and values of the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth. Our centre is based on Christian values in the catholic tradition with the values of Hospitably, Love and Acceptance forming the cornerstone of Holy Family Services.
Our objective is to offer the community a place where children will be encouraged to have fun and excel at the same time. We provide care and education for children ages six weeks to six years.

Our Philosophy
We value early childhood education as the foundation for lifelong learning. We believe that each child is a unique individual and should be viewed, respected, and treated as such. As the welfare and wellbeing of each child is paramount, we strive to provide holistic support of the child’s exclusive requirements and interests in a nurturing, familial environment that fosters the child’s development across all developmental domains. Through our social and physical environment, we welcome and include all, and seek to create a sense of belonging in our centre community. We celebrate the diversity and multicultural nature of the community in which we live and acknowledge the original custodians of this land and the Darug nation, on whose land we now stand, and we pay our respects to the Elders past, present, and emerging. Our staff team reflects a diversity of education, training, and life experience, as well as a range of multicultural backgrounds and languages.
Our Program
Our purpose at Holy Family Early Learning Centre is to provide our community's children with the best learning and social experience for school and life. Our dedicated and passionate educators prepare children with communication and language, physical development, personal and social and emotional skills they need to be confident, self-assured, and independent children.
Our educational programs are reflective of emergent curriculum and adhere to guidelines set by ACECQA, National Quality Framework and The Early Years Learning Framework, taking the child’s developmental level into account.
