Our Story:
Lonehill Little Learners is headed up by Priscilla Davidson and her daughter Juliet Crole.
We are celebrating our ninth year of cutting-edge early childhood learning, under the umbrella of NURTURE FIRST. No matter how state of the art the equipment and curriculum may be, it is ONLY when a child feels happy and emotionally secure that they are able to learn.
Our years of experience in a variety of education systems, across all age groups, has left us with a passion to lay the very best foundation for future learning and to equip children with the skills needed for a lifetime of success. For example, helping children to understand how to challenge their brains and know how to turn a mistake into a valuable learning experience.
We want children who are risk takers and out the box thinkers. Sounds easy but the environment in which to achieve these goals needs to be very specifically prepared.

We run a stimulating integrated, differentiated pre-primary program with a full academic curriculum that promotes Early Childhood Learning.
Every successful child needs a fully functioning support system. Therefore, our vision is to reach beyond the development of the child and support the family unit. We do not have general open days, preferring to meet parents on a one to one basis. Priscilla is available to meet parents daily and we recommend you plan to arrive as close to 08h30 as possible. However, we totally understand that this is not always possible for parents, so in these situations Priscilla is happy to make a time that best suits your schedule. |

Some words from our class of 2019
“Our family has been blessed and enriched from the time spent at Little Learners. |

“Thank you for all the happy years we could share with you at Little Learners! “ (The Dells)
“My Little Learners Family,
A place of laughter, growing up,
Adventure and so much more!
Thank you for your caring hearts and open arms
Thank you for allowing me to shine and
for always seeing the magic in me! (Lillyanna Hindley – Graduate 2019)
“My family and I were lucky enough to be enriched by Little Learners. My children were taught about effort based outcomes in a loving community, enriched environment that gently pushed them to success no matter what their individual skills. They have in my opinion, had the best start in life and as a parent I have made such incredible friends as a result of the community ethos and opportunities to participate. The leadership is evident across the whole school from admin and education to ground staff. I fetched my children happy every day and would highly recommend this school to anyone looking to give their child a realistic, ethical and enriched start to their schooling career ultimately yielding their success.” (Tenielle Reeve)
“ What is there to say about a school that became like a home and teachers that became family to us?
My little girls were given the biggest blessing and privilege of their lives, the opportunity to grow with Little Learners for their first fundamental 5 years. In life we often doubt if we are doing the right thing for our children, but never once did we hesitate when it came to Little Learners.
Thank you Little Learners for giving our little ones BIG dreams and big hearts. Thank you for being their constant guiding light. Thank you for being our home. “
