About us

Our purpose is to help children grow to be strong, moral, fulfilled and holistic adults

Why Academe Time?

It’s the destination for children’s confidence to grow with a focus on practical, intellectual and emotional development. With curricular, extracurricular and incursion programs, we meet children where they are, creating a safe space to explore their interests and talents.

Growing together

Academe Time began its life as DramaTime with a long history in Melbourne schools. In 2021, owner Lara Wiser embarked on a renewed offering, with Academe Time providing the scope for many more beneficial programs for children and their families.

Today, our programs span children’s health and well-being, giving them the opportunities to explore drama, dance, art, circus, yoga, and sports, with more programs to come.

Our values

Our values ground our programs in real life skills that create happy and healthy children with self belief and confidence. It’s these values that set us apart. We’re about giving children so much more than simple activity or entertainment. We’re here to help children develop life skills that build readiness and resilience for any challenges and change as they grow. 

Where to find our programs

Our range of programs are offered across Melbourne for children to access during kinder, preschool, primary school, or alternatively after school, on holiday programs or at our studio.
