Education
Our educational programs are aligned with the National Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), “Belong, Being and Becoming” and school readiness programs for the transition to school.
Play-based
Play unlocks the world of social relations for a child – it is a journey that lasts until adulthood! It is important that children learn about getting along with peers and play is how this happens.
Nature play
Children have regular excursions and outings to the bushland around our service, to explore and play. Building strong connections to the natural world helps develop resilient, confident children with an understanding of sustainability and conservation.
Mindfulness
Our mindfulness program is incorporated throughout our entire service. There is not a strict set time or place for this program to occur, in fact it is the core essence of our programme, it occurs all day!
