Quality Area 6: Collaborative Partnerships with Families and Communities: We recognize the importance of building strong partnerships with families and communities to support children's learning and wellbeing. Despite our extended operating hours, we actively engage families in their children's education through regular communication, collaborative decision-making, and opportunities for involvement in our program.
Learning Outcomes of EYLF: Our program is structured to support children in achieving the learning outcomes outlined in the EYLF, including a strong sense of identity, connections with their world, a strong sense of wellbeing, confidence and involvement in learning, and effective communication skills. We integrate these outcomes into our curriculum and pedagogical practices, ensuring that children are well-prepared for school and beyond.
