Learning & Care

Learning at our Kindy

The kindergarten uses the Early Years Learning Framework. This framework consists of a number of principles, practices and learning outcomes. Fundamental to this framework is a view that children’s lives are characterised by Belonging, Being and Becoming.

The framework conveys the highest expectation for all children’s learning from birth to five years and through the transitions to school. It communicates these expectations through the following five learning outcomes –

  1. Children have a strong sense of identity
  2. Children are connected with and contribute to their world
  3. Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
  4. Children are confident and involved learners
  5. Children are effective communicators

Occasional Care

Occasional Care is a service offered to families in our community. It is operated by the Department for Education and runs through school terms.

We offer sessions for children aged 3 and above. The program is integrated with the kindergarten sessions. We offer sessions on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday mornings and there is a priority of access policy in place at our site.

Playgroup

Playgroup is currently held on Friday mornings between 10.30am and 12 noon.

Fees are $2.00 per child per week. This is a donation to cover the cost of materials and utilities used. This is a parent run unfunded program.
