Further Information


We have high expectations for every child and this is achieved through our program which promotes independence and autonomy and allows children to experiment, explore and develop at their own rate as an individual.

When planning for each child’s development we will consider each child as unique and plan experiences and routines based on their interests and developmental needs. In aspiring to care for the child in regard to the many aspects of their development we ensure that the Child’s very basic needs for such things as food and shelter are catered for, as well as needs of the social, emotional, physical, language and intellectual kind.

When meeting each area of need for a child, we will not overlook the child’s role in their own learning; their innate willingness to grow and evolve through exploration of the world around them. Our educational play based program reflects Learning Outcomes from the Early Years Learning Framework and Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework.

Pines Learning operates an Education and Care Service which is approved under the National Quality Framework

Our Educators work with parents/families and the community to provide quality care and education for children aged from 8 weeks to 6 years in a family group setting.

Our aim is to explore and learn together with your child and our program is based on Learning Outcomes from the Early Years Learning Framework and the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework.

  • We offer a Funded 3 & 4 year old Kindergarten program.
  • We are a Child Safe Organisation.

Support and guidance


Our educators offer unconditional support and guidance to all children and families based on the Practice Principles of the Early Years Learning Framework and Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework. We acknowledge the central role of parents and families in the child’s learning and encourage ideas and feedback from them and welcome their input into our program.

We aim to create a sense of belonging for all children, families and staff, where diverse identities, backgrounds, experiences, skills and interests are respected, valued and given opportunities to be expressed and developed.

At Pines Learning Childcare teamwork is a top priority. Our educators are committed to working together to support each other, we use reflective practice and professional development to ensure the highest quality of care/education is maintained and meets the National Quality Standards.

]]> Traineeships offer a unique and valuable opportunity for individuals to gain practical skills while earning a qualification. Unlike traditional classroom-based learning, traineeships combine paid employment with structured training, providing a hands-on approach to education that is ideal for many industries. Whether you’re just starting out in your career or looking to pivot into a new field, here are some of the key benefits of pursuing a traineeship.

1. Earn While You Learn

One of the most significant advantages of a traineeship is that you get paid while completing your studies. Rather than incurring the costs of full-time education, trainees can earn an income, making this option more financially accessible. This “earn while you learn” model allows individuals to support themselves or their families while gaining valuable skills and qualifications for their future careers.

2. Real-World Experience

Traineeships offer practical, on-the-job training that goes beyond theoretical knowledge. This real-world experience helps trainees develop the specific skills needed in their chosen industry, making them more job-ready upon completion. By working in a real workplace environment, trainees gain insights into the day-to-day responsibilities of their future roles, build confidence, and establish strong professional networks.

3. Increased Employment Opportunities

Completing a traineeship makes you more attractive to employers. With both a qualification and work experience under your belt, you’ll be better equipped to enter the workforce and stand out from other candidates who may only have theoretical knowledge. Many trainees secure permanent positions with their host employers or leverage their experience to move into different roles within the industry.

4. Tailored Support and Training

Throughout a traineeship, participants receive support and guidance from their employer and a Registered Training Organisation (RTO). This ensures that trainees can access expert training while gaining feedback and mentorship on the job. The combination of formal education and workplace experience allows for a well-rounded learning experience tailored to individual needs.

5. Pathway to Further Qualifications

Traineeships can also be a stepping stone to further education and career advancement. After completing a traineeship, individuals often can pursue higher qualifications or specialise in particular areas of their field. This flexibility makes traineeships an excellent choice for those seeking immediate employment and long-term career growth.

6. Boosts Confidence and Job Readiness

By working in a professional environment and applying the skills you’re learning in real-time, a traineeship helps boost your confidence. You’ll become familiar with workplace protocols, navigate challenges, and develop a stronger sense of responsibility—all key factors in achieving career success.
