About Us
Our Philosophy
Our curriculum aims to develop children’s foundation of love for learning, where they can continually be curious, capable, and competent learners. We value life skills, humanity, and social justice to enable children to become people of integrity and have a voice in the world. We take on a holistic approach, where learning is a continual journey and a social process, thus our decisions involve a collaboration of children, families, educators, and communities.
Children are guided and empowered how to look after their own health, safety, wellbeing, and happiness, and are effectively working towards making valuable decisions for themselves.
We strive for a safe, clean and stimulating environment that fosters curiosity and challenge. We seek and encourage opportunities to connect with the land, in which we come from and continue to carry on teachings of the First Nations people. We respect the environment, and the environment respects us. Our place is a second home for children, families and educators that is welcoming and loving for all.
Educators stand as advocates of children, where the rights and best interests of each child are promoted. Children are heard, respected and protected as individual beings with value and dignity. We cherish a culture of being respectful and responsive on a reciprocal level and we continually practice how to respect one another in meaningful ways. We connect with the children through trusting and genuine relationships.
Educators are passionate and committed towards being supporters of children’s learning and growth. We value each other and work as a team through collaboration and critical reflection. Educators believe in the art of being playful and embed this into our professional roles. We demonstrate ourselves as role models and continuous learners, who embrace a growth mindset.
We respect our individual families; their beliefs, cultures and values, and work in partnership to cultivate learning and a sense of belonging. We recognise that we are responsible for our own community, thus we seek to understand each other’s needs and goals, have compassion to support one another, and celebrate together for our achievements.
