Our Rooms
Each of our five rooms is named after a stage of growth, and children move through them as they grow with us, from their first days at Maples through to Kinder.

The Maples Experience
Sunbury families can look forward to everything that makes Maples special: a curriculum inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach, beautifully designed environments that act as the “third teacher”, freshly prepared meals from our in-house chef, and educators who know every child by name.
We also plan to offer funded Kinder and our Pre-Prep program, helping children build the confidence and skills they need for school.
These photos are from our Kilmore and Hawthorn East centres, so you can see the Maples experience your child can expect in Sunbury.
