Rise & Shine Kindergarten is proud to announce the opening of its newest service in Dundas, expanding our long-standing commitment to premium early education across the country. As an Australian, family-owned company, we are thrilled to bring our award-winning programs and values-driven approach to the Dundas community.
Our sister centre in Rydalmere, located within the beautiful heritage-listed Truganini House, has long been a beacon of excellence in early education.
Over the past 13 years, Rise & Shine has earned recognition as a sector leader in STEM education for the early years, combining premium standards of care with dynamic, future-focused learning experiences.
At Rise & Shine Kindergarten, every program is purpose-built to nurture each child’s whole development, from curiosity to confidence, and wellbeing to wonder. Our Care+ and Kindy+ programs offer a unique learning pathway tailored to each stage of growth.
- The Care+ approach for infants and toddlers focuses on building emotional security, healthy attachments, and school readiness foundations for our youngest learners.
- Kindy+ is our excursions and events program designed specifically for preschoolers. With our very own bus, our much-loved bus driver Eve, and our wonderful crew, children enjoy regular excursions and events that bring learning to life in real-world settings. This program is incredibly popular among the children and plays an important role in building confidence and independence. It also helps prepare children for school excursions when they transition to primary school.
At the heart of our approach is The Shine Advantage Curriculum, a holistic, evidence-based framework that weaves together five key elements: Smart Start, Inspire, Unite, FIT, and Crew, empowering children to develop essential life skills such as resilience, empathy, collaboration, creativity, and healthy lifestyles.
Complementing our curriculum is our weekly soccer program delivered by Soccajoeys, which encourages physical confidence, teamwork, and gross motor development.
Our commitment to innovation and excellence has been recognised through Teacher Excellence, Business, and Employment Awards and celebrated projects including Orbit- Centre of Imagination, Australia’s first dedicated STEM hub for early learners. More recently, we launched The Orbit Mobile STEM Shuttle, bringing the excitement of science and technology directly to children throughout Australia.
We are deeply grateful for the continued support of the Western Sydney community, whose trust and enthusiasm have shaped our journey since day one. The opening of our new Rise & Shine Kindergarten Dundas marks another milestone, the next chapter of growth, imagination, and partnership in Western Sydney.
We warmly invite families to join us for our Open Day on May 2, or to book a personal tour online at either our Dundas or Rydalmere centres. Come and discover why more families are choosing Rise & Shine.
