The Ngura Yadurirn Children and Family Centre services the Ceduna early years community with a focus on supporting Aboriginal children and families with young children to provide the best possible start in life. We provide a safe, welcoming place for your minya (small) child to grow, learn and play.
We value culture and relationships with families, so that children grow into strong kids who have deadly (awesome) learning skills for today and the future.
There are many opportunities for you and your family to connect with our centre. We encourage you to get involved with the programs and services we offer.
In Wirangu language, 'Ngura', means place, house and country, and 'Yadurirn', means becoming good, better, bigger and strong. Our name reflects our commitment to our community.

Getting involved
We support families to be involved in decision making about the services and programs offered in our children's centre. This includes becoming a member of the parent engagement group. To find out more contact our community development coordinator or director.
If you’d like to volunteer with us in another capacity, we’d love to hear from you. See volunteering in schools, preschools and children’s centres and have a chat to us about how you can get involved.
Acknowledgement of Country
We acknowledge the traditional owners of the land we are on and pay our respects to their Elders past and present, and extend that respect to other Aboriginal people who are present today.
