The Tots Town Children Centre is dedicated to providing a warm, safe, fun environment in which children can grow and develop. Our experienced and caring staff has been involved in child care for 30 years. Consistently voted best in the city, our program is highly structured to rotate themes, toys and equipment to enhance the play and learning of children. We conduct children assessments so parents have a better understanding of where their children are at in terms of social and intellectual development to ensure all the necessary help is provided for them at this crucial stage.

Pirate Days
Rrr, ye mates. Join me, Captain Hook, and the crew for a castaway adventure through the Caribbean. We’ll be surviving the deep blue seas, swabbing decks, walking the plank and hunting for lost treasure in far-away lands. Come on, all you landlubbers, put on your pirate pants and skullcaps to ship off where the seas are wild!
Storybook Theatre
Leave your shoes at the door and step into the world of fantasy play. This week, we will explore the world of the Fine Arts! We will be doing Puppet Theatre, Acting, Singing, Dancing and Special Painting. We will act out a “Storybook Theatre” – starring YOUR KIDS!
Mad Science
This week is loaded with excellent experiments for kids. By the end of each session, the children will learn that science is all around us and is a part of our everyday life. Each day, we will see how things grow and participate in awesome and fun experiments. We guarantee that your children will walk away intrigued by simple science. So come see what’s erupting!

Ribbons are handed out each day to all participants.

This week, our children will be very busy building, creating and constructing in our Tots Town Workshop. We will be building a Wooden Clothes Hanger and a small Treasure Box. Hammers, nails, paints, wrenches and sandpaper will be supplied to our construction crew. Can we build it? Can we paint it? Can we use it? Yes we can! So put on your “Tool Time” aprons, come along and join the construction crew.
