Our Children
- Children are capable and resourceful learners who are active contributors to their own learning
- Children need to be valued as individuals, within the context of their family and their community.
- Children can develop confidence and positive self-esteem through a supportive and secure environment.
- Children are exposed to and are in a sustainable environment that will seek to awaken in each child an appreciation of their natural surroundings and its resources.
Therefore we:
- Implement a play based/child-centred program based upon the principles outlined in the NSW curriculum framework and the National Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) – ‘Belonging, Being & Becoming’
- Strive to empower children, by using their thoughts and ideas to develop the program
- Strive to empower children, by using their thoughts and ideas to develop the program

- Implement an inclusive approach to positively support children’s growth of identity, self-esteem and critical thinking
- Encourage each child to reach their full potential in accordance with their individual ability.
- Provide experiences and an environment that fosters children to become environmentally friendly and strengthen children’s connectedness to their surroundings.
