About Sydenham Children's Centre

Welcome to Sydenham Children’s Centre, a caring and welcoming place where every child feels safe, supported, and valued. From the moment children arrive, we focus on building strong, trusting relationships, because we know children learn best when they feel secure and connected.

Our dedicated team of educators takes the time to truly know each child. We listen. We notice. We support each child’s wellbeing and development in ways that respect who they are and how they learn. Children are encouraged to share their ideas, follow their interests, and grow in confidence as they explore the world around them.

Our approach is child-focused and inclusive. We celebrate diversity, encourage curiosity, and support a lifelong love of learning through everyday play and meaningful experiences.

We are proud to be part of the Sydenham community and work closely with local schools, health services, and support networks to provide a well-rounded and caring experience for children and families.

At Sydenham Children’s Centre, we’re more than a place to learn. We’re a community, and families are at the heart of everything we do.

Our Leadership Team

Wivvienne Tran

Hi, my name is Wivvienne Tran, and I am the Centre Director at Sydenham Children’s Centre. I have been with BPA for 16 years and have had the privilege of leading both Sydenham and Delahey Children’s Centres for the past 11 years. What I love most about Sydenham is the strong, caring relationships our educators build with children and families every day. Our close-knit team creates a calm, welcoming environment where children feel safe, valued and confident to learn and grow at their own pace. I am incredibly proud of the professionalism, warmth and dedication our educators bring to the centre, and I am passionate about supporting our team to grow and provide the very best early learning experience for every child.
