Our Educators provide a high quality curriculum that is based on the fundamentals of the Early Years Learning Framework that will allow children to flourish and to enrich their learning, In conjunction with the Australian Government Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) our program encourages children to become involved by providing interest based activities, which enables them to develop their capabilities and at the same time build on needs and challenge their strengths.

We pride ourselves in a specific focus on the key aspects of this National Program “becoming Being and Belonging” in collaboration with the key learning outcomes.

We believe the value of play is of utmost importance to children as it is their way of learning about their world. While children are playing, they are able to express their creative ability, release emotions and can share their feelings.

How do I know if my child’s ready for ‘big school?’

Each and every child is different how they learn and develop during their early years, however it is most important that your child is SOCIALLY and EMOTIONALLY ready before they commence primary school.

SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT:

• Building friendships with their fellow peers
• Playing socially with their peers during free-play
• Interacting through conversations with peers and educators
• Taking turns, sharing and cooperation
• Listens and follows instructions from educators
• Developing self-help skills in doing things independently
• Develop confidence in speaking during group times and during one-one interactions.

EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT:

• Controlling their emotions when upset from either being spoken to by educator in regards to their choices they may have made and/or their behaviour
• Controlling their emotions during times where they may be upset at their fellow peers and/or during drop-off times
• Expressing their words if they are upset at their peers during free-play and NOT physically hitting other child/children
