HERITAGE

Heritage is located in Canberra, at the southern end of the Australian National University (ANU). We are in a quiet, leafy part of the campus, just a short walk from the shores of Lake Burley Griffin (close to Acton Peninsula). Our aim is to ensure each child is given a chance to play, discover and grow in an atmosphere of care and mutual respect where the dignity and rights of the child are preserved at all times. We are committed to teaching children to care and respect the land of the local indigenous people and to love all the beauty and freedom it has to offer. We believe that children develop a stronger sense of community through a physical connection with nature and natural environments. While we are very much aware of children's safety, we are equally aware of the importance of risk taking and challenging young children... Heritage Early Childhood Centre was established in 1980 as a childcare service run by parents. In 1989, Heritage became fully staffed by early education..
