Center Philosophy

Belonging means to us – Believing all children should have access to a high quality centre that respects them and treats them as individuals.  We believe our centre does this as well as offering an unbiased approach to their individual and group learning. Our door is always open to parents, families and the wider community, who are invited to participate when and however they can. We believe in partnership between the centre educators and families where there are open lines of communication so we can all share in the joys of the children’s learning, development, guidance and discoveries.

Being to us means – Aiming to provide an environment that is challenging yet consistent so the children in our care feel safe and secure, and are given the opportunity to be who they want to be. Our environment promotes self help skills as well as educators care, through which self esteem is built upon. We are active in children’s learning, co constructive knowledge with children and families alike. All educators work together creating a curriculum that is both educational and stimulating to the children, educators and families that enter our centre.

Becoming  means to us – Offering a curriculum that provides age appropriate choices which empowers individuals in their discovery of lifelong learning.  Our program is interest based and flexible, children develop and learn through play at their own pace, being supported at the same time by the centre educators.

All children, families and educators have input into the programs run in each room and review the opportunities which are both planned and spontaneous regularly. This impacts positively on each child’s learning enabling them to develop lifelong skills of inter-relating, resilience, empowerment, social competence, and independence. Though reflective practice and being guided by EYLF and NQF we are able to provide an ever-evolving environment which allows for intentional teaching and spontaneous learning.
