47 Karimbla Early Learning Centre Philosophy

 We believe that creating a happy, fun, safe, supportive and inclusive place to learn will allow all children to reach their full potential and a lifetime love of learning. We view each child as unique and cater of all children by using their ideas and interests to inform our curriculum. We highly value relationships in creating our Karimbla Family with all our children and their families. These bonds are based on warmth, trust, respect, communication, understanding of individual needs, and allow all people attending the service to feel safe, secure and supported. Through these relationships children develop the confidence to become involved learners and explore without limitations. Play is valued as our most important learning tool at Karimbla Early Learning Centre. Through a variety of play experiences children explore, create, imagine and discover. We scaffold learning by providing meaningful experiences and interactions. We believe play is the foundation of learning and growth, providing the context to build and extend on knowledge and social skills, understanding in a way that makes sense to individual children as they make sense of the world around them. We value a natural and engaging learning environment as the third teacher which is an integral part of our curriculum. We ensure we provide an enabling, well-designed environment; creating spaces for learning to happen and to support educators to be present and engaged with the children during play prompting deeper thinking and ideas.
