The children take part in activities within a stimulating learning environment. They enjoy group time for their music and movement program or special guests that come into the centre. They eat their meals and snacks with their friends under the guidance of their educators. They enjoy taking part in songs and storytelling, sensory activities, and messy play in the garden. At nap time, they are taken into the sleeping area where gentle music and a twinkling night sky encourages them to rest.

The educators recognise that routines for toddlers are an important opportunity for learning. Performing daily, predictable tasks while having fun is a chance for toddlers to build their self-confidence, communication and social skills and the ability to develop their self-control. The toddlers enjoy a daily rhythmic routine which assists them to transition between activities throughout the day. They take part in activities such as music, yoga, cooking, painting, drawing, singing and dancing, STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) based activities and the centre’s sustainability program. They also enjoy eating their meals and snacks with their friends and educators.
4 years - 6 years

They enjoy regular meals and snacks with their friends and educators, helping to set up, serve and clear away afterwards. Other activities include literacy and numeracy games, a sensory experience in the zen garden, outdoor fun with the sustainability curriculum, and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) activities to help encourage children to think creatively and critically.

In January 2012 the National Quality Framework (NQF) came into effect across Australia.
The purpose of the NQF is to improve and standardise the quality of child care through a
range of measures including better staff to child ratios, higher staff qualifications
and an assessment and rating system designed to promote continuous improvement.
Under the NQF child care services are assessed and rated against the National Quality Standards (NQS).
The NQS measures the quality of early childhood education and care in Australia. It will cover
most long day care, family day care, preschool/kindergarten and outside school hours care services.
Under these standards child care services will be assessed and rated against the
seven quality areas, 18 standards and 58 elements that make up the NQS.
