Get to know us
Meet the team
Meet the team
The centre’s handpicked team has extensive experience within the early childhood sector. Staff retention is a focus, as they understand that this helps to build strong relationships between the educators and children.
The educators work hard to understand the children’s interests and skills, and then create programs that help support them.
Centre philosophy
Centre philosophy
Respect: the centre respects the traditional Aboriginal owners of the land, the children and their own diversity, and the families and communities that are part of the centre.
“We respect when we hold hands.” – Alayna (Kindergarten)
Trust: at the heart of the centre’s philosophy is the idea of building trusting relationships that are grounded in mutual respect.
“To ensure parents and children trust their Educators, making sure they are comfortable leaving their children at the service.” – Belinda (Lead Educator)
Patience: this is about helping children to begin to think critically about fair and unfair behaviour, and to remain accessible to others at times of distress, confusion and frustration. Patience is not simply the ability to wait, it’s how we behave while we’re waiting.
“To provide an environment where everyone’s input is heard and respected.” – Cherie (Director)
Kindness: the centre seeks to demonstrate kindness every day through their interactions and encourages children to do the same. A smile, sharing of toys, or offering a hand is encouraged every day to grow the children’s confidence and build strong relationships.
“Sharing things and playing with friends.” – Cleo (Kindergarten)
Creativity: the centre believes that fostering creativity in children is vital for their holistic development. Whilst being creative, children spend time practicing their concentration skills, fine motor skills and their problem-solving skills.
“Always planning programming on interesting things to allow the children to open and widen their minds.” – Jaymi (Parent)
About the curriculum
About the curriculum
6 weeks – 15 months
The babies enjoy a stimulating environment that satisfies their need to explore, experiment and observe. In the warm, interesting, stimulating and secure environment, the focus is on their development. The highly skilled educators develop programs that fosters children’s natural and inquiring minds.
15 months – 2 years
For the busy toddlers, independence is developed during this period of great growth and development. The programs are developed for the toddlers based on their own interests, ideas, strengths and stages of development. The educators support this age group with play based learning experiences to ensure they are developing positively.
2 years – 4 years
The children in this age group are naturally driven to develop and explore their independence and learning. Educators develop programs that allow children to learn through play based experiences whilst also encouraging learning about themselves and the world around them. This program equips each child for their transition to kindergarten and formal learning.
4 years – 5 years
The children take part in a school readiness program that helps them prepare to transition to school. The program builds children’s social and emotional skills with a good balance of curriculum and play based learning. Pre-Prep visits to local schools forms part of the school readiness program.
