Our Curriculum

Our curriculum blends respected educational approaches with the EYLF principles of Belonging, Being and Becoming. Children co-construct their learning as curious, capable learners in a warm, inclusive environment.

Collaborative Learning
We foster confident, involved learners who connect, communicate and problem-solve—individually and in groups—building identity and well-being through meaningful interactions.

Experiential Learning
Hands-on experiences drive understanding: experiments, construction, dramatic play, literacy & numeracy invitations, creative arts, and sensory exploration—indoors and outdoors.

Communication
We cultivate language and communication through conversation, stories, group projects, and a language-rich environment. Families stay connected via Kinderloop updates, portfolios, displays and scheduled conversations.

School Readiness
