We’re excited to share an important milestone in our journey. Aurrum Kids Early Learning services are now part of the Story House Early Learning community, bringing together two organisations that share a deep commitment to exceptional early childhood education and care.
Families at Aurrum Kids will continue to experience the nurturing environments, passionate educators and high-quality learning programs they already know and trust, now strengthened by the resources, support and community of the Story House Early Learning network.
As part of this transition, four Aurrum Kids services have joined the Story House family of childcare centres under new names that reflect their connection to our broader learning community.
Story House Early Learning Mornington
(Formerly Aurrum Kids Mornington Peninsula)
Located in the beautiful coastal community of Mornington on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula, Story House Early Learning Mornington offers children a welcoming environment where curiosity, creativity and confidence can flourish.
The service continues to provide high-quality early education programs tailored to each stage of a child’s development, from nursery through to kindergarten. With thoughtfully designed learning spaces and passionate educators, children are encouraged to explore, discover and build strong foundations for lifelong learning.
Families can expect the same dedicated team and nurturing culture that made Aurrum Kids Mornington Peninsula such a valued part of the local community, now supported by the wider Story House Early Learning network.
Story House Early Learning Ballarat
(formerly Aurrum Kids Ballarat)
Story House Early Learning Ballarat continues the strong legacy built by Aurrum Kids Ballarat, offering children a vibrant and engaging early learning environment in the heart of the Ballarat community.
The centre focuses on creating meaningful learning experiences that support children’s social, emotional and cognitive development. Through play-based learning, children are encouraged to explore their interests, develop friendships and build confidence.
With the transition to Story House Early Learning, families will benefit from enhanced resources, professional development for educators and a strong commitment to delivering high-quality early childhood education.
Story House Early Learning Penrith
(formerly Aurrum Kids Penrith)
Story House Early Learning Penrith continues to provide a warm and inclusive environment where children feel safe, supported and inspired to learn.
The service offers engaging educational programs that support each child’s individual learning journey. Educators work closely with families to create a strong sense of belonging and community, ensuring children feel confident as they explore new ideas and experiences.
Now part of the Story House Early Learning family, the centre continues its commitment to providing high-quality care and education for families across the Penrith community.
OAK Early Learning Toowoomba
(formerly Aurum Kids Toowoomba)
In Toowoomba, Aurrum Kids will transition to OAK Early Learning Toowoomba, joining the growing OAK Early Learning network.
OAK Early Learning shares the same philosophy of nurturing, play-based education and strong family partnerships. The service will continue to provide high-quality learning environments where children are encouraged to grow, explore and develop confidence through meaningful learning experiences.
Families can expect the same caring team and supportive environment that have made the centre a trusted choice for early education in Toowoomba.
Continuing the Journey Together
While the names of these services are changing, the heart of what makes them special remains the same — dedicated educators, strong relationships with families and a commitment to helping children thrive.
By joining the Story House community, these services will benefit from expanded resources, shared expertise and a connected network of early learning communities across Australia.
We’re excited to welcome the families, educators and children from Aurrum Kids into this next chapter and look forward to continuing to grow together.
