Jungle Cubs Early Education had its 'Class of 2018' graduation at Cleveland State High School hall recently - an event to rival high school ceremonies.
Almost 200 family and friends attended to watch 32 government approved kindergarten students graduate.
The event allowed each of the children to express what they wanted to be when they grow up by way of a unique video, followed by a formal handing over with a certificate of completion and a walk on the red carpet.
"Speaking to many of the parents, it was a happy emotional event that was past what they had expected as most graduations are held on premise," centre owner and approved provider Jeff Neale said.
All of this was followed by the cutting of the cake, a pizza party and dancing on and off stage - an incredible event enjoyed by all.
Jeff said both he and his daughter Eden, who is the Jungle Cubs director, had a dream to create an early education centre based on the National Quality Framework, prompting them to purchase the centre in February 2018.
Jeff ensures that every child through the centre has the best chance of enjoying learning in an environment that teaches and prepares them for the next step in their educational life though nurturing play-based learning in a relaxed home style environment.
Jungle Cubs takes the children's education very professionally so they are more socially, emotionally and educationally ready to take the next step in life.

"Having four children, I have always been passionate about helping children," Jeff said. "My daughter completed her Bachelor of Early Education because she was so passionate as well and we decided to create a proper early education centre rather than the childminding hit miss approach...."
Staff at Jungle Cubs want every child to have the best chance going forward, to enjoy learning and have confidence and emotional maturity for pre-prep.
"The easier they learn, the better chance to stand out in the crowd and hopefully be able to find a job they like in the future," said Jeff. "Our centre is about that and our graduation for the kindergarten children was the crescendo of the year."
The 25 strong staff include teachers, trainee teachers completing education degrees, diploma qualified lead educators, as well as certificate qualified assistants and staff.
"We have a government approved kindergarten program run by a qualified teacher and her assistant is a second year student doing her teaching degree."
The centre has play-based learning from the babies room to the kindergarten. Staff supply wholesome healthy meals including breakfasts to help busy parents.
