Our Programme is ever changing and stems from your child's interests, your goals for him/her, our teachers knowledge of child development and from community events.
Children learn as they play so our day is organised to allow your child to have long periods of free play to develop their social skills with focussed activities based on our programme to develop their interest's knowledge and skills.
We meet before mealtimes in groups to share stories and songs or to share ideas for a programme topic. Meal times are a time to sit, eat and share great conversations together. At morning tea the children share fruit and crackers they have brought from home. The children eat from their lunch box at lunch and afternoon tea.
We are lucky to have a large outdoor space and we make the most of it, encouraging children to run, jump, play and grow their bodies as well as their minds.
