About the curriculum

About the curriculum

Aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework, the Academy of Early Learning curriculum is flexible so it can be tailored to the individuality of every child. In doing so, the educators support the children to develop their confidence and love of learning so they can build important lifelong skills.

For the children aged 0 to 3 years in the Nursery and Childcare, the play-based curriculum encourages the children’s natural curiosity. They engage in activities that help to develop their imagination and creativity while enhancing their social, emotional and cognitive skills. 

 In the Kindergarten and Preschool rooms, the children develop the skills they will need to succeed at school and beyond. The focus is on giving the children the emotional, physical, intellectual and language skills they will carry with them as they transition to primary school.
