PAGODA

The Pagoda is part of Cambridge Early Learning Centre, which was itself established in 1976. The original service operated out of the Union Parish Hall and was known as the Cambridge Childcare Centre. In 1979 the Cambridge Childcare Centre (charitable) Trust was formed to oversee the community-based service at about the same time as the move to the present site on Fort Street. Back then, the single story purpose-built building catered for the needs of 31 children between the ages of 12 months and 7 years... The Pagoda Teaching Development and Research Centre is one of the three teaching units at CELC. In addition to its teaching and care roles the facility was specifically designed to be suitable for conducting academic research. Thus, the Pagoda team also conducts original research and provides student teacher development support.
