The environment and learning areas are carefully planned and considered by nurturing, warm and passionate professionals who truly value high quality care and education. They designed to create a sense of belonging in a homely, inviting environment.
Our program is guided by our Centre’s philosophy and the Early Years Learning Framework for Australia (EYLF 0-5 ) and the Victorian Early Years Learning Framework ( VEYLF O-8) All our curriculum decisions are based on these.. The frameworks describe the principles, practices and outcomes essential to support and enhance young children's learning from birth to 8 years of age, their transition to school and the early years at school. The frameworks have a strong emphasis on play based learning. They have been designed for use be early childhood professionals working in partnerships with families, children’s first and most influential educators.
