EARLY YEARS LEARNING FRAMEWORK

At Bush Babies Nurseries, we are dedicated to providing quality learning experiences for your child which centre around play-based learning and child-led activities as outlined in Belonging, Being and Becoming: The Early Years Learning Framework. Our educators observe each child and extend on their interests and emerging capabilities, creating a program which will support each individual child. The program includes teacher-initiated activities and opportunities for intentional teaching, so that children are provided with the best possible learning journey whilst they are in our care.

KINDERGARTEN

Our centres operate an approved Queensland Kindergarten program, with a qualified Early Childhood Teacher. The program is based on the Early Years Learning Framework, but is specifically designed to support and enrich the learning of children in the Kindergarten class in the year before they start Prep. As we prepare children for their transition to school, we focus on finessing children’s fine motor skills, literacy and numeracy skills, and we also have a strong focus on emotional resilience and social skills, so children are not only well prepared for Prep, they are also well prepared for life.

The program aims to prepare children for their transition to school and the Early Childhood Teacher will work collaboratively with parents and the school, completing transition statements for each child at the end of the year to provide to their new teacher.

EXTRACURRICULAR ACTIVITIES

Children learn best through unique, play-based activities, as these keep them engaged and allow them to develop new skills. To extend on their learning, we provide children with unique learning experiences, by offering extracurricular activities at our centres.

Music, sports, cooking, gardening, yoga and arts are some of the rotating activities we have in place at our centre.
