Story House Early Learning Maitland

Story House Maitland is set inside a lovely old church built in the 1800s and has been totally modernised with full facilities. We offer children a safe, secure and stimulating environment where they have maximum potential to grow, learn and experience the world. Our centre offers vast, open and natural spaces outdoors which allow the children to explore nature in an enjoyable setting.

Our children are provided with the opportunity to climb trees, play on the gravel bike track and use the manmade fort to develop their gross motor skills. The outdoor environment is divided into three separate yards, allowing children the opportunity to split into their own age groups while still being able to chat with their peers between the fences.

Limited places available!

Story House Maitland has provided an incredible platform for helping our daughter to build strong emotional connections with others and herself. What Story House offers is to help kids navigate life’s ups and downs independently – with great love, support, incredible team culture and massive natural play areas to roam and spread their wings. We highly recommend Story House and its fantastic team!

We adore Story House Maitland! We have been with the centre for three years and appreciate the core staff who have been a stabilising and consistent influence on our children’s lives in this time. The outside space at the centre is another desirable feature; there are simply no other centres that can offer such a large and safe outdoor space for children that allows them to explore and enjoy nature. We are so grateful for Story House Maitland.

I have been with Story House since I was in Kindergarten. Story House is amazing, fantastic, awesome, fun, and you never get bored. I attend OOSH and Vacation Care. I love our OOSH room. Cathy and Kristy always take care of us and keep us safe. When I grow up I want to come and work at Story House.
