Our School Readiness Program for 4 to 5 year olds

We operate an all year round School Readiness Program which is aligned with all Qld Schools and is delivered by our specialist Bachelor Qualified Early Childhood Teacher who has over 15 years experience teaching Qld Government Approved Kindergarten classes.  

Our School Readiness Program provides specifically for children’s learning across the year before starting school. It recognises that children bring with them diverse identities and backgrounds. It acknowledges that parents/carers are children’s first teachers and values the vital role families play in children’s lives and their ongoing learning. The term ‘families’ is used throughout the program to recognise the range of people who take on parenting roles.
