We recognise that children's learning and development takes place in the context of their families and that families are the children's first and most important educators. All children are seen as strong, capable and resilient; rich with wonder and knowledge, bringing with them deep curiosity and potential.

 

Our flexible program supports each child to engage with and explore their uniqueness and diverse perspectives. Children possess agency and are provided with the ability to initiate and lead their own learning, viewed as active participants and decision makers in matters that affect them. There is a strong focus on social collaboration, working in groups, where each child is an equal participant, having their thoughts and questions valued. Children's social, cultural, family and linguistic diversity is valued and supported through equitable access to resources and participation within the program.

​

Positive behaviour management approaches support children to self regulate and develop relationships and skills, enabling self advocacy and a safe and secure environment to 'be'.

Effective approaches for building resilience are supported by active and positive partnerships with children, parents and community. Children are provided with opportunities to learn and practice social skills, developing the ability to 'bounce back' when faced with adversity within learning and the social context.

 

Each child is assessed individually using the Early Years Learning Framework and the National Quality Standard, within the context of the physical and social environment. Evidence of learning goals are gathered by educators through observations as well as discussions with the child, families and community.

 

An ongoing cycle of critically analysing, planning, documenting and evaluating individual and group learning, underpins the educational play program. Through goal driven learning opportunities, each Educator caters for individual learning, gathered through the interests of the children.  Learning experiences are also spontaneous throughout the day, allowing for key moments of inspiration and learning to be explored through meaningful experiences.
