The Management, Nominated supervisor and Educators believe in providing a warm, welcoming environment, where children and all stakeholders feel nurtured and at home, giving them a sense of belonging.
The Service believes it is important to provide a safe, hygienic, aesthetically pleasing environment for all people who attend our service.
We acknowledge the First Nations people as the Traditional Owners and ongoing custodians of the land. We will endeavour to implement teachings of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander perspectives throughout our yearly programs.
While in our care all children are treated as individuals, we help them to reach their full potential by recognising their uniqueness.
We recognise that it is essential for families to work in consultation with Educators in ensuring each child can strive to their full potential. Families are encouraged to share and discuss their child’s development needs with the service.
We believe all children are competent learners that grow and develop at their own pace. We support this by ensuring that learning is based on their capabilities and their interest.
We will encourage sustainable practices by being role models, teaching children awareness of the natural environment through daily routines and education.
As Educators we will ensure to help the children build positive connections, form warm friendships and bonds with their fellow peers and Educators. This will be achieved by having open and honest forms of communication with all parties involved in the children’s development.
We believe a predictable routine allows children to feel safe in gaining control of what to expect, developing consistency and security will instill a sense of security in their environment.
We also acknowledge that not all routines meet children and educators’ needs. This is why routines will be determined on children’s behaviours and environmental elements on a day to day basis.
We believe that all children are curious learners and it is important to embrace their sense of wonder, by allowing them to investigate, experiment and explore the world around them in providing experiences that will help them understand the world that they live in.
Educators will endeavour to provide children with adequate learning skills through learning through play, intentional teaching, routine and modifying the learning environment to develop the child as a whole.
Guided by the Early Learning Years Frame work, Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines and My Time Our Place, we observe, plan and reflect on children’s development and learning. Educators will ensure that they are nurturing each child’s strengths as well as areas of improvement.
At Kuraby Early Learning Centre we praise ourselves on providing high quality care with Educators who are professionals and understand the importance of Early Childhood Education. Professional development is essential in maintaining these skills.
We will provide equal opportunities for all children, ensuring no child is discriminated against on grounds of class, gender, race, religion, ability or additional needs. Families will work with Educators and support agencies in providing inclusion for all.
