Our class room environment displays are set up in learning stations throughout all class rooms, giving all children the opportunity to learn and explore at their own pace and each experience tailored to each child’s individual needs.

Every new experience, each moment of discovery helps to share who our children are and who they'll become.

We believe all children should be competent independent individuals who are capable of their own learning and we are committed to deliver high expectations for each child’s learning and development and believe every child has the rights to experience the sense of success and achievement, by learning through play and everyday living and experiences.

We believe that relationships create a path way for children to foster their individuality and uniqueness which can be utilised throughout their learning journey.
