RCH Early Learning - Only for children of the Royal Childrens' Hospital Centre overview
The Royal Children's Hospital Early Learning is registered for 159 equivalent full time children between 6 weeks and 5 years of age. Places are allocated to the Royal Children's Hospital employees, whilst our Kindergarten is open to the wider community. We are a fully accredited service, utilising hospital and community resources within the City of Melbourne.
Environment -
Ten purpose-built learning environments, with three adjacent outdoor spaces.
Integrated 4 year old Kindergarten program
Unique on-site location encourages families to be involved in children's learning, whilst also provides an opportunity for children to explore and build relationships with hospital departments, Royal Park, and other local facilities.
Each learning environment provides a flexible approach to educating and caring for children, which may include progressive meals, indoor/outdoor play and self-guided learning.
Curriculum -
The curriculum is based on a play based philosophy which invites each individual child to be open-ended, hands-on and self-guided in their learning. Our teaching practices are strengthened by theoretical underpinnings and formal training from Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences, as well as guided by the National and State curriculum (VEYDLF, EYLF). We engage with children individually and as a community of learners, supporting their unique interests and learning, as well as the contribution they make to the whole learning environment.
