In our Preschool Space, we are dedicated to laying strong educational foundations and preparing children for the transition to primary school life. We support children in regulating emotions, managing relationships, and resolving conflicts with their peers. Play is valued as an important tool for learning resilience and life skills, while our inquiry-based approach encourages children to be curious, engaged, and absorbed in their learning. Our comprehensive School Readiness Program covers literacy, language and literature, science, mathematics, arts, and technology, giving children the confidence and skills they need for school. We also work closely with families, setting goals together and maintaining strong communication through parent-teacher meetings to ensure every child’s learning journey is supported.
Our Learning Modules
Our preschool program is enriched with engaging modules that nurture curiosity, creativity, independence, and confidence while preparing children for a smooth transition to school.
Through singing, rhymes, rhythm, dance, and musical instruments, children build language, memory, coordination, and confidence, while also developing a love for creative expression.
Preschoolers explore more advanced STEM concepts through experiments, building, counting, measuring, and problem-solving activities that encourage critical thinking and curiosity.
Community members and families are invited into the centre to share their cultures, skills, and experiences, broadening children’s understanding of the world in a safe and familiar environment.
Our playground and outdoor spaces are designed to support children of all abilities, encouraging climbing, running, balancing, and team games. Physical play builds gross motor skills, resilience, and confidence, while teaching children to manage risks safely and work as part of a group.
Painting, drawing, craft, and imaginative projects allow children to explore their creativity, improve fine motor skills, and communicate their ideas visually while building concentration and persistence.
A key focus of our preschool is preparing children for primary school. Our program covers literacy, language and literature, science, mathematics, arts, and technology. Intentional teaching helps develop foundational skills like pencil grip, cutting, writing, and problem-solving, while also supporting social skills such as communication, teamwork, and emotional regulation. Families are engaged in the process through regular communication and goal-setting to ensure every child transitions smoothly and confidently into school life.
Together, these modules create a dynamic and well-rounded preschool program that inspires children to explore, imagine, and grow, while laying strong foundations for future success.

Safe and guided excursions, such as visits to libraries, schools, and local landmarks, provide real-world connections and learning experiences. A comprehensive risk management plan is always in place, with families notified in advance and required to provide consent.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does the Preschool program prepare my child for school?
Our School Readiness Program develops early literacy, numeracy, science, arts, and technology skills. We also focus on social-emotional growth—helping children regulate emotions, build relationships, and gain confidence—so they transition smoothly into primary school.
What does a typical day look like in Preschool?
Preschoolers enjoy a mix of structured and play-based learning, small and large group activities, outdoor exploration, Storytime, creative arts, and STEM experiences. Each day is balanced with opportunities for rest, free play, and educator-guided learning.
How do you support literacy and numeracy at this stage?
Through intentional teaching and play, children learn to recognise letters, numbers, colours, and shapes. Storytelling, rhymes, early writing activities, and hands-on numeracy tasks prepare children with strong foundational skills.
How do you encourage independence?
Preschoolers are supported to practice self-help skills such as packing away, handwashing, toileting, dressing, and managing personal belongings. We also run initiatives like ‘lunch box days’ to prepare them for school routines.
How do you communicate with families about progress?
We use OWNA, a secure childcare app, to share updates, photos, and learning stories. Families are also engaged through parent-teacher meetings and regular goal-setting discussions to track children’s learning progress.
What role do play and inquiry-based learning have?
Play is central to our program. Through guided play and inquiry-based activities, children develop problem-solving, creativity, resilience, and critical thinking while making sense of their world.
What excursions and incursions are included?
We organise safe excursions to local schools, libraries, and community spaces, alongside incursions where guests share cultural, artistic, or scientific experiences. Parents are always notified in advance and provide consent before outings.
How do you support social and emotional development?
Our educators guide children in developing empathy, teamwork, resilience, and conflict resolution skills. Through roleplay, group projects, and daily interactions, preschoolers learn how to navigate relationships and build confidence.
How do you ensure safety during activities and excursions?
All activities are age-appropriate and supervised by trained educators. For excursions, a comprehensive risk management plan is in place, and safety checks are conducted regularly to ensure children’s wellbeing.
How do you celebrate milestones and achievements?
Every milestone, from writing their name to forming friendships, is celebrated and shared with families. We ensure children feel proud of their achievements and confident in their abilities.
