Qualified and Enthusiastic Educators
Our team of qualified and dedicated educators love their work, and they are highly experienced. Educators actively and regularly engage in personal and professional development to further expand their knowledge and skills. They all believe it is a privilege to be able to assist local families in the care and education of their children. You will notice that our Educators are actively engaged with children, developing positive relationships, contributing to the children's belonging, being and becoming.
Settling in
The first weeks are spent being with and listening to the children, planning activities and experiences that speak to them, which allows them to foster ties with other children and the educators. Children are given time to explore their new environment and gently familiarise themselves with their new routine. Our experienced educators are wonderful at settling new children and getting them excited to foster new friendships.
Ideal Early Learning Environment
TG's Child Care is a carefully designed and presented environment, with lots of natural materials and play spaces providing experiences to allow children to explore, experiment and discover. Our well-organised environment is welcoming, consistent and predictable, providing a sense of place and purpose for young active children. It is vibrant and flexible and allows for children's changing needs, interests and abilities. It invites exploration, interactions, safe risk-taking, discovery, connections to nature, conversations and communication, and lots of fun play.
Early Years Learning Framework
We implement the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) as the basis for our Programs. Our daily curriculum incorporate the principles and practises drawn from the EYLF and our educators carefully plan their programs to include the children's current interests, needs, skills and abilities.
Literacy and numeracy activities are part of the everyday routine, and involve the children recognising their own names, writing their names on artwork, listening to stories and poems, counting the number of children present each day, playing number games, and playing music and singing songs that involve active participation.
​
Our Preschool Program includes a school readiness program for the children to further assist them as they transition to school, and also give them the social, emotional maturity and confidence to be able to cope with the everyday demands, and to encourage a life time love of learning.
