Programs
Throughout the centre we use the Early Years Learning Framework
(EYLF) which guides us to provide environments where interactions and
experiences enhance childrens 'Belonging, Being and Becoming'. The EYLF
encourages us to look at the capabilities and interests of children and provide
both structured and spontaneous learning opportunities to promote the development
of the whole child.
The EYLF values the learning experiences that early childhood
provides for children and details the five (5) learning outcomes that guide our
reflective teaching:-
1. Children have a
strong sense of identity
2.
Children are connected with and contribute to their world
3.
Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
4.
Children are confident and involved learners
5.
Children are effective communicators
