Mission Australia’s Horningsea Park Early Learning Service has passed a test with flying colours.
The centre has received a high quality accreditation ranking - the highest possible - from the National Childcare Accreditation Council.
The centre was rigorously tested on 33 principals in seven categories by a council official during a recent day visit.
The categories included staff relationships with children and peers, partnership with families, programming and evaluation, children’s experience and learning, protective care and safety, health, nutrition and wellbeing, and managing to support quality.
All seven categories were ranked as high quality, the highest of four bands.
The Horningsea Park service was registered in April 2009 after taking over from an ABC Learning Centre.
Centre director Ruth Brennan said staff had worked hard to improve the care for children.
“We are very proud of this achievement,” she said.
