Make Your Move

Green Leaves Early Learning Seaford House is a state-of-the-art educational haven located on Grand Boulevard. Seaford House was established to assist its sister centre, Seaford Meadows, to meet the local demand for high-quality early education.

Green Leaves Seaford House has 5 warm and inviting learning hubs, including a kindergarten room, that inspires wonder, curiosity and the imagination of children aged 6 weeks to 6 years. Each learning hub is styled with modern educational resources that create unique learning journeys that stimulate eager minds.

The outdoor learning environment is an extension of the indoors with a focus on ecophilosophies and sustainability. Our children love our bike track with interactive street signs for imaginative play; this, coupled with our edible gardens and timber play fort, sets the scene for countless adventures throughout the day. We have a parent lounge that provides a sense of belonging and community, facilitating connections between families and community members. Here, parents can enjoy a freshly baked treat and barista-made coffee to enjoy in or take away.
