Our rooms cater for different ages and levels of development.
When children have reached a certain age and/or level of development, as assessed by our qualified educators, and in collaboration with parents, they are assisted in making a successful and exciting transition to the next room.
With this in mind, the following age-split is provided as a rough guide only to help you navigate our room structure and developmental goals and objectives.
Birth – 2 years: Pipis Room
Our Pipis Room offers a warm inviting early learning environment for children from birth to 2 years of age. We understand this may be the first experience leaving your child with people outside your family and we invite parents and family members to spend as much time as they like in the room interacting with their child and also getting to know the staff members.
We provide a range of experiences, which helps early developmental milestones, and we also offer flexible routine, which allows us to keep as close as possible to your child’s home routine. Your child will be introduced to the joy painting, water play, sand, play dough along with many other experiences. As your child grows we also have opportunities to climb, jump, crawl and dance all this is done in a safe supervised environment.
1 – 2 years: Starfish Room (not currently in use)
2 – 3 years: Seals Room
Our Seals Room children are aged between 2 to 3 years. Children are provided with a welcoming, happy and safe environment where they have the freedom to be themselves and to explore. Children in the Seals Room are encouraged to be independent, confident throughout the day and explore their self-help skills. Our children have access to experiences for the development of their social skills such as home corner and dress ups. Children are also encouraged to engage in group times and in our book corner where we read books and sing songs for our children’s language development, social skills and also have a quiet time for themselves.
