What Makes Hunter Street Different
Built around your commute
Located in the heart of Newcastle West with easy parking close by, Hunter Street is one of the earliest opening centres in Newcastle. Whether you’re heading into the CBD or starting an early shift, drop off fits around your morning.
A team that knows your child
Family owned and proudly low turnover, our educators aren’t just familiar faces, they know each child’s favourite game, what makes them laugh, and the milestones they’re working towards next.
Spaces designed to spark imagination
Original murals by local Newcastle artists set Hunter Street apart, from the blue whale that welcomes children at the entrance to a Jungle Book inspired play space with its own sensory path and sandpit.
Peace of mind, built in
Background checked, Safety Geeko trained educators and secure, supervised spaces mean families can drop off with confidence every day.
Creative, purpose designed spaces
Inside, murals by local Newcastle artists turn every corner into a moment of discovery, from the blue whale that greets children at the entrance to the Jungle Book themed play space, complete with its own sensory path and sandpit. These environments are designed to spark curiosity and creativity, giving children the confidence to explore, imagine and grow every day.

Play Spaces Created For The Right Learning Experience

Just as every child grows at their own pace, each room is thoughtfully designed to support the next stage of their learning and development.
