Trust and respect form the foundation of our relationships with children, and once established the child and educator work together, learning about each other through play-based inquiry. Our program development centres around each child’s natural curiosity, allowing them the opportunity to navigate their own learning pathways, fostering their self-
confidence and meets their individual learning requirements.
We believe that by continuing to prioritise and nurture our relationships with children we can ensure they have the best foundation from which to be successful learners now and into the future.
We are committed to upholding the safety, wellbeing, and rights of every child in our care. Our educators are vigilant, informed, and proactive in identifying and responding to any concerns about a child’s physical, emotional, or psychological safety. By embedding child-safe practices into our everyday actions and decision-making, we create a secure, nurturing
environment where children feel safe, valued, and protected.
We believe in developing strong professional relationships with our families, which is based on a mutual partnership centered around achieving the best outcomes for their child. Establishing culturally appropriate and respectful relationships with families is essential for them to feel confident to trust us to care, nurture and educate their child in the early years
learning environment.
We believe it is a privilege that families select our service, and we work collaboratively to develop programs that respect family expectations, cultural perspectives, and knowledge of their child. Our passionate educators are committed to supporting families in their parenting journey without bias or judgement through the early years learning environment. Educators
draw on service policy, curriculum, regulations, and community services to ensure that decisions made on behalf of the child are informed, and the rights of the child are met.
We value the community relationships that we currently have established and endeavour to continue to be actively present within our community, to ensure our relationships continue to strengthen and new connections can be formed. We work towards linking our families within the community so that they have greater access to support, additional services, and
opportunity to meet new people. We value and respect Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples past and present and
acknowledge them as the traditional custodians of the land. We are committed to developing a relationship with the Tasmanian Aboriginal community, deepening our understanding of their histories, perspectives, and contributions so we can support the education of children, families, and educators to become a culturally competent community now and in the future.
We believe in networking with our community to ensure our educators have access to training and skill development opportunities. This ensures that they can provide learning opportunities for children that are supportive of diversity, inclusion and guided by critical reflection.
Our workplace community fosters a positive and supportive culture, which works collaboratively with the parent committee, in achieving the best outcomes for the employees. This enables them to continue to provide the high-quality education and care service for our community to access.
We are dedicated to supporting our community in being socially responsible for our environment. We aim to continually work to improve our sustainability, to guide and educate the children in caring, protecting, and connecting with their land and all it encompasses. We aspire to create a warm, friendly, and safe space for children to play, learn and enjoy.
We believe in building nurturing and sustaining ‘relationships for life.’
