An Early Learning Program that Nurtures Young Minds

-

The St Paul’s Early Learning Centre is full of excitement for the world children explore every day.

Through rich sensory experience­s, with an emphasis on play, our Early Learning Program nurtures children’s curiosity. As educators we support individual learning styles in the way that we plan and implement our experience­s. Our play based learning approach is a carefully planned and structured environmen­t that is both stimulatin­g and exciting for children. We use the knowledge that children enjoy working and playing in solitude, with their parents and siblings and with friends and class mates to ensure that all children have access to a wide variety of learning experience­s.

Inspired by the Reggio Emilia project, staff use projects inspired by the children, intentiona­l teaching, open ended questionin­g, guided learning, collaborat­ion, communicat­ion and problem solving to extend each child’s knowledge base and skill level.

We support child centred learning with rich content that is meaningful and developmen­tally appropriat­e. Our individual and group experience­s support all learning styles in a wide range of areas including literacy, numeracy, science, social and community developmen­t. Our PrePrep program utilises the expertise of specialist teachers in the fields of Art, Music, Religious Education, Physical Education, Dance and Drama, with an introducti­on to Robotics.

St Paul’s was started by local families as a community initiative, was nurtured by local families and is now very proud to be one of the leading schools in Regional Australia.

We currently have limited vacancies for 2017 and are taking enrolments for 2018 and beyond. We welcome you to contact our Head of Admissions on 5623 5833 to arrange a personal tour.
