Mini Masterminds Waitara

A family owned and operated centre, the team at Mini Masterminds is also like a family. The educators bring a youthful energy to their work every day and are motivated to provide the highest quality education and care. The multicultural educators speak many languages and value the importance of diversity and inclusion.

For convenience and instant connection, Mini Masterminds takes a digital approach to communication. The educators share photos and updates throughout the day in the centre’s secure app. Parents can access the photos from wherever they are and feel like they are part of their child’s day. Parents can also speak with educators in person to discuss their child’s progress.

In addition to the national curriculum, Mini Masterminds Waitara is proud to have developed a bespoke curriculum in consultation with well-regarded Early Childhood Teacher, Jacob Camilleri. The unique Prep School Program exposes children to the NSW Foundation Font and focuses not just on the Early Years Learning Framework but also the Early Stage 1 curriculum as well. By merging the Pre-school and Kindergarten lessons, the children will have a head start when it comes to their formal schooling. 

The focus of the curriculum is on play-based learning. This ensures each child develops, understands and takes responsibility at their own pace, capability and individuality. The individualised educational curriculum is based on the children’s current learning and interests and is designed to further each child’s growth and development. 

The centre’s programs allow for the children to move freely around the activities, while ensuring that all key learning areas are promoted and explored. The overall aim of the curriculum is to develop a child’s independence, while fostering confidence in communication and learning.
