Programs

Programs
To create a sense of familiarity and security for the children, the educators follow a predictable daily routine across the centre. This then allows the children to explore and enjoy their day while feeling safe in their surroundings.
The educators make the most of the facilities to include a mix of both indoor and outdoor learning activities. They consider each child’s individual learning styles and needs to ensure that every child has the support and opportunities they need to thrive.
The children can participate in swimming lessons and cooking activities. They can also attend excursions and often welcome community visitors into the centre for incursions. Nature play is encouraged to teach the children about sustainability and caring for the environment.
The school readiness program supports the transition to big school, helping to prepare these children for life beyond Story House Early Learning.

Meet the team
The centre takes a thoughtful approach to finding and hiring the right educators. They look for educators who are qualified, experienced and familiar with using evidence-based practices to create engaging learning activities.
Story House Early Learning has a high employee retention rate thanks to the positive working environment. This also provides the children with a stronger sense of familiarity and security as they get to know the people caring for them each day.

Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement
The educators at Story House Early Learning use the StoryPark platform to communicate with parents. They share photos and stories on this secure platform to ensure parents can feel part of their child’s day.
The programs and curriculum at the centre are also tailored to the community and culture. The educators are respectful of your family, your culture and your story.
About the curriculum

About the curriculum
The educators work closely with families to provide a safe, quality, family-centred learning environment where every child is respected and nurtured. The team continually develops their skills and explores new ways to enrich each child’s early learning experience.
Indoor and outdoor play-based experiences are an integral part of the program. Educators plan a diverse range of experiences to create opportunities for each child in both structured and spontaneous play.
The centre’s programs are inspired by the wisdom and teachings of early childhood theorists and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and aim to develop children’s emotional, social, and cognitive intelligence.
The Kindergarten curriculum continues to emphasise play based learning, however offers additional intentional learning times where the focus is on literacy and numeracy, socialisation, self-regulation and independence.
