Our family has had an outstanding experience with OAC Tennyson Ave. The center has a very professional and passionate team, creates a nurturing environment, fostering both learning and social development. And they are very supportive to parents and willing to work with parents to provide genuine care for each child.
Previously, my son goes to another center, he is unhappy and most of the time he refuses to go in the morning. We never had this kind of problem with OAC Tennyson since day 1. He loves to go each day and feel so happy and doesn’t want to leave in the afternoon. He has significantly improved his communication and social skills after 2 years at OAC Tennyson.
Would recommend to anyone, such a loving, caring and exceptional preschool!

A wonderful centre with an even more wonderful director who has seen all 3 of our children through their preschool years.
The staff are beyond caring and know each child to a deep level.

As parents we get a clear understanding of what they do during the day and the centre fosters a caring environment whilst also teaching and growing them.

Couldn't ask for better care for my little ones at OAC Tennyson

OAC Tennyson Ave is a beautiful community Preschool with friendly staff who create a safe, happy and engaging environment. The teachers develop quality programs including a school readiness program which provides opportunities for children to reach their potential. Julie is a fabulous Director who is always willing to help and support parents and children. She is caring, welcoming and very approachable. After 3 years, our daughter leaves OAC for 'big school'. She has made lovely friends and will leave with very fond memories.

The preschool is amazing. I feel confident and comfortable going to work as I know my son is having a wonderful day learning and playing with his teachers and friends. My son has settled very quickly due to the kindness and experience of his teachers. We are immensely grateful for the team for all their efforts and enthusiasm. The preschool is very much a community focused on the children.

We travel from the Central Coast so our boys can attend Oac Tennyson Ave. It is an amazing centre with brilliant and passionate educators who excel at bringing out the best in preschoolers and toddlers. Watching our boys begin to develop their confidence and love of learning while at the centre has been a journey our whole family has been so excited to share. The range of learning experiences my boys have had is absolutely mind blowing- both of my children have come so far in their pre literacy and numeracy since starting at the centre and they absolutely adore coming to kindy here. They love their educators so much and Miss Julie our director is incredibly hard working and supportive of families to ensure we have access to additional services and so many great experiences including excursions and social activities. The cleanliness of the centre is second to none and I can emphatically say my children have never picked up a single
Illness from the centre because the level of hygiene is so high. Being a smaller centre our children have relationships with their teachers across the rooms and we love that the boys can interact throughout the day. We are so grateful to the beautiful staff and I have so many friends in other areas who wish they could have their children attend such an incredible place. It really is a magical environment for children to develop a life long love of learning— every day, without fail, the teachers have worked tirelessly to set up new and interesting experiences in both the classrooms and the gorgeous outdoor space- I love seeing how excited the boys are to see what new activities are on offer and when I pick them up in the afternoon they are still having fun. They have an enormous sense of pride in their kindy and are always excited to show us the new activities that have been set up and the work they have done. The Storypark app is amazing and I know that no matter what I can always talk to every educator and they will know exactly how both boys days went because they are so connected and engaged. Tennyson Ave Oac is the best start in education we could ever have hoped for and exceeded all our expectations by far.

OAC Tennyson Ave is such a loving and caring childcare and preschool. All of the staff are so friendly and professional and really enjoy playing with the children. Both my children absolutely love going each day and I have to drag them home most afternoons. Would recommend to anyone, such a beautiful community childcare.

We have been really impressed with the team at OAC Tennyson Ave. They are supportive and playful and really enjoy their roles. All the kids are busy and happy. Our son is 3 and can’t wait to get to ‘school’ each day. He is really engaged in the activities and always has something new to tell us each day. Would recommend to anyone.

The staff at OAC Tennyson Ave are exceptional. We tried two other centres in the area and this one was by far superior because of the passion of the educators, their willingness to work with parents and genuine care for each child. My son didn't want to leave in the afternoons because he was having so much fun. I wish we'd found it earlier!
