We're helping shape the lives of 59,500 children every day, championing early learning in the first five years, through innovative and evidence-based care and teaching methods. We know the first 1000 days are crucial to all future learning and development, and the interactions, experiences and relationships during this period will have life-long impacts. Our Education Strategy is designed to promote the very best practices that will help children fulfil their potential. We have a clear sense of purpose that we share with the passionate and dedicated people who are part of our G8 family. Our core values of passion, innovation, dedication, compassion and integrity, unite us on our journey to ensure the health and happiness of future generations, the precious little lives entrusted in our care each day.
At G8 Education we believe in the power of the individual to do good – in the workplace, within our circle of friends and family, and in the wider community. Helping others is fundamental to our culture and we aim to instil this in the children we care for and our own team. Over the years we have supported many community initiatives and charities. Our centre teams and children have raised money for the Drought Relief Appeal, collected Band-Aids for Evie's Band-Aid Bonanza, supported Children's Hospitals in two States, and we have contributed our own "sweat labour" to Clean Up Australia. We've also taken part in nappy collections, fun runs, blood donation drives and too many local charities to list. We've learned that the joy of giving is far greater than receiving, and collectively, the 11,000 passionate and caring people who are part of the G8 family can make a real difference. There's nothing like doing good to feel good.
