Our Curriculum:

Our educators and teachers are trained and accredited in the Lifelong Learning Curriculum which is Australia’s most advanced approach to early education for children from birth to age five. It is based on the belief that learning and development occurs most successfully when supported by nurturing and engaged educators, in partnership with families and communities. This curriculum draws on the best models of early education, contemporary research and evidence informed practices such as Circle of Security and Project Based learning.
