At Oz Education Early Learning Centres, we believe children learn best when they are given opportunities to explore, experience and connect with the world around them. Our incursions and excursions are thoughtfully included as part of our early learning programs to enhance children’s understanding, confidence and curiosity through meaningful, hands‑on experiences.
These experiences extend learning beyond the classroom while remaining closely aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Whether learning within the safety of the centre or exploring the local community, children are supported to discover new interests, build social skills and develop a strong sense of belonging.
Children are given opportunities to learn through doing – asking questions, engaging with new people and environments, and applying their learning in practical ways. These experiences help children make meaningful connections, encouraging confidence, independence and a natural love of learning that develops over time.
Incursions
Our incursions invite trusted external providers into our centres, offering children the chance to experience new ideas and skills within a familiar, comfortable environment. These sessions are carefully chosen to complement our curriculum and support children’s learning in engaging, age‑appropriate ways.
Incursions may include:
- Music, dance and movement programs that encourage creativity and expression
- Animal and nature experiences that spark curiosity and care for the environment
- Cultural, creative and interactive performances
- Science, sustainability and wellbeing experiences led by specialists
Excursions
Excursions provide valuable opportunities for children to interact with their local community and apply learning in real‑life contexts. These outings support independence, social awareness and problem‑solving, helping children feel confident navigating environments outside the classroom.
Excursions may include visits to:
- Local parks and natural environments
- Libraries and community hubs
- Neighbourhood landmarks and services
Safety, Supervision and Family Confidence
Your child’s safety and wellbeing are our highest priority. All incursions and excursions are carefully planned, risk‑assessed and supervised in line with regulatory requirements.
Families can feel confident knowing that we ensure:
- Appropriate educator‑to‑child ratios at all times
- Clear supervision and risk‑management procedures
- Advance communication and written permissions
- Full compliance with health, safety and regulatory standards
You’ll always be informed ahead of time, so you feel connected and reassured every step of the way.

Sayed
Our son has been attending Oz Education since he was a baby, and now, as he gets ready for school, we couldn’t be happier with his progress. The educators are caring, professional, and nurturing, always supporting his learning and development. He loves coming to the centre every day, and we feel completely confident knowing he’s in such a safe and welcoming environment. Highly recommend Oz Education.
Amanda
My 4-year-old has attended since she was 7 months old and absolutely loves it. I was nervous returning to work, but the wonderful staff at Oz Education created a warm, nurturing environment that gives me total confidence every day. My daughter is always excited to see her educators, and the Centre Director does an amazing job managing the centre. We love it so much that we still attend even after moving out of the area—it’s worth the travel!
