Help your child develop new skills, and enhance their learning experience!
Book A TourHappy Feet classes provide a unique approach that encourages play-based learning by drawing on the fun of movement and dance, the creativity of original music, and the joy of active play.
The combination of these elements alongside our exciting handmade costumes creates very engaging, interactive classes that take the children on fantastic imaginative adventures via narrative, song, and creative movement.
Happy Feet Fitness’s approach to play-based learning is not only beneficial for children’s physical health but also for their social and emotional development. The classes allow children to express themselves creatively and develop social skills such as cooperation, communication, and problem-solving.
Happy Feet classes also provide a safe space for children to explore their emotions and learn how to regulate them. To find out more about the program here.

At Smart Cookies Early Learning Centre, we believe that incursions and excursions are a vital part of a child’s learning and development. We focus on incursions that touch on music & movement, wildlife, healthy eating, developing curiosity through magic.
We also love embracing the children’s exploration by taking them on excursions such as to the park, the train station, and local community initiatives like the Woolworths discovery tour!
Children learn in many ways, and what better way to teach them than having our Smart Cookies parents sharing their skills! Parents are the first teachers to our children! This is why we love encouraging parents to be involved in our curriculum decision making by volunteering their time too come in an share their expertise or hobbies and talents with their children and their classes. This is a great way to broaden children’s minds and share a sense of family with the children are as simple as reading a story, planting a tree, wood work or cooking experience.
