Learning Framework

At Port Elliot Kindergarten staff self-reflect through a cycle of planning, to ensure the delivery of a high quality program that is based on play. We believe learning occurs as a result of a curriculum that responds to the spontaneous, dynamic, changing environment where educators are partners and co-learners. Educators and children create learning partnerships in a responsive manner where children feel empowered, have a sense of ownership, and take pride in themselves and their learning.

The learning environment and framework is reflective of the individual needs and interests of the children attending, and is evident throughout the kindergarten. Using R,R,R, and the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), Literacy and Numeracy Indicators as tools for inquiry and learning, curriculum support and reflective practice, educators create learning environments and playful curriculum that encourages and supports children holistically.
