A welcoming little patch for growing school children
At Poppy Patch Early Learning in Wembley, we understand that starting school is a big step—and a busy school day can feel very big for little people.
Our before and after school care and vacation care programs offer a warm, welcoming place to play, create, build friendships and unwind.
With a thoughtful focus on younger school children from Kindy to Year 1, our program is a lovely option for children who may find a busy school-based OSHC setting overwhelming. We make room for quieter moments alongside engaging activities, helping children feel comfortable, included and connected.
Before School Care

After School Care

Our afternoon program offers opportunities for creative play, outdoor movement and time to relax.Whether your child wants to build something wonderful, get creative with craft or settle into a quiet activity, there is space to enjoy the afternoon at their own pace.
