Educational programme
There is a clearly defined educational programme comprising Birth to Three Matters.
It's planned to cover the foundation phase based on the desirable outcomes for the 3-7 year olds for Children's Learning before Compulsory School Age (ACCAC 2000). We introduce the areas of learning through topics and project work.
Birth to Three Matters covers:
- A strong child
- A skilful communicator
- A competent learner
- A healthy child
The foundation phase covers:
- Language, literacy and communication skills
- Personal and social development
- Mathematical development
- Knowledge and understanding of the world
- Physical development
- Creative development
- Bilingualism and multicultural understanding
A selection of each child's work and developmental achievements will be collated by the key worker and may be viewed by you at any time. These records will accompany the child when they leave the Little Scholars Nursery.
Occasionally, weather permitting, children are taken for walks or short excursions.
