Early Experiences
We know your toddler is ready to socialise, make friends, and to be introduced to new challenges in a safe and nurturing environment.
Our qualified childcare educators are trained and accredited in the Lifelong Learning Curriculum by Affinity Education Group. This incorporates the Abecedarian Approach which is a progressive and personalised way for toddlers to learn to communicate their thoughts, emotions and intentions.
Our educators are recognised for the happy and loving environments they create where toddlers laugh, learn and thrive.
During ‘Early Experiences’ your toddler will also learn in our Lifelong Learning Curriculum zones including:
- Discovery Zone
- Toddler Talk
- Book Nook
- Little Artists
- Imagination Station
- Completely Connected
- Move and Groove Zone
- Construction Zone
What Toddlers Learn
As toddlers start to communicate their interests, share their ideas and connect with other children, they develop self-identity and awareness of the world around them. They learn the impact their actions and behaviours can have on others, and how to participate in learning opportunities.
How Toddlers Learn
Toddlers learn best through play, supported by gentle and fun interactions with their educators and with other children. Our educators reflect on each child’s unique interests and provide opportunities for children to contribute to their own learning and development.
We consider children’s opinions and allow them to be involved in decisions which affect them, therefore building confidence and capability for our little people to play an active role in the community around them.
Where Toddlers Learn
Our indoor and outdoor learning environments allow toddlers to choose between solitary, small and large group play. Their sense of adventure and wonder is stimulated through learning games as they are encouraged to create and explore, every day!
