About the Curriculum
About the Curriculum
Botany Bay Pre-School Curriculum
Our curriculum blends multiple educational theories to shape your child’s educational journey and instill a lifelong love for learning. Designed to enrich each child's unique potential, it fosters holistic growth in a warm, engaging environment. Inspired by EYLF, we believe in nurturing children's interests and constructing their own identity. Our curriculum focuses on providing a supportive and interactive environment characterized by the principles of belonging, being, and becoming.
A Curriculum Centered On:
- Collaborative Learning:Our curriculum fosters collaborative learning, igniting creativity while encouraging connection, communication, and collaboration. It aims to build a strong sense of identity and well-being among children, fostering confident and involved lifelong learners. Children are encouraged to express their interests, take initiative, and participate actively in individual and group settings.
- Experiences:We believe in the power of experiences to develop cognitive, physical, social, and emotional skills. Our curriculum adopts an experiential learning approach, engaging senses and sparking curiosity. Indoor and outdoor learning spaces facilitate immersive environments with interactive activities such as experiments, role-playing, building, literacy and numeracy experiences, creative arts, and sensory exploration.
- Communication:Communication is at the heart of our curriculum. We emphasize developing effective communication skills through peer-to-peer discussions, group projects, and conversations. Our language-rich environment encourages children to express themselves, actively listen, and engage in respectful dialogue. We also prioritize open communication with families, ensuring parental involvement through documentation initiatives such as daily diaries, project books, portfolios, and wall displays. This fosters a supportive, inclusive learning environment where both children and parents are valued and heard.

After having such a bad experience in my son’s previous centre I found Botany Bay Pre School and thus far it has been the best decision I’ve made for him. I’ve never come across a group of educators who are so caring, thoughtful, patient, loving and supportive, like I have at Botany Bay Pre School. I’m now able to leave my toddler in a safe, happy and loving environment where he is cared for, made to feel safe and his needs are being met. I currently pick up him from school these days and he is so happy, always smiling and never wants to leave. He is a completely different child to what he use to be before we changed schools. I have never seen him this joyful and it’s such a wonderful feeling as a parent to see the change in him. A big big thank you to Chenice, Cassie and Mei for welcoming my little boy with open arms this week and giving him the support he has needed to readjust, feel safe but most of all for making such a huge impact on my sons preschool experience (and mine too!) You guys have truly made a world of difference and we couldn’t be more happier. Thank you again for everything, i can’t wait to see my little one learn, grow and become a confident little person in Botany Bay Pre School. Looking forward to many more years to come in a great small community centre. You guys Rock! Read more

We joined BBPS in June/2024, during a time when there was a lot of uncertainty and noise surrounding the management. To be honest, we came close to withdrawing our daughter from the preschool. Fortunately, Chenise joined the team as the new Director in July. And since then, the daycare’s structure and organization have improved remarkably, the range of activities has expanded significantly. - My daughter absolutely loves her yoga class and enthusiastically teaches me new yoga poses every evening. - The Show & Tell (or My News) section has been fantastic for building her confidence in speaking in front of her peers, and it has significantly expanded her vocabulary. She even corrects my English from time to time (which always gives us a good laugh)! - Most importantly, she genuinely loves attending BBPS. She has formed a wonderful group of friends and looks forward to going there every day. We are truly grateful for the BBPS team’s (Cassie, Jasmine, Mae, Chanel, Job) dedication, care, and hard work. It gives us immense peace of mind knowing she’s in such loving and capable hands. We hope to see more local families join BBPS and experience this incredible community! Read more
