Our Philosophy
Eltham South Preschool believes that childhood is a vital period of rapid learning and development. Through play-based learning, we foster a nurturing and stimulating environment where children can explore, discover their potential, and cultivate a love of learning.
Our passionate and experienced teachers guide and support young minds, fostering their social, emotional, physical, and cognitive growth. We encourage exploration, creativity, and individual expression in every child.
Our Program
Our curriculum is based on the Victorian Early Childhood Learning and Development Framework and the National Early Learning and Development Framework. We implement a play-based learning approach, using developmentally appropriate activities that cater to the diverse needs of young learners.
Through a variety of experiences, including:
- Dramatic play
- Creative art and music
- Sensory exploration
- Outdoor adventures
- Construction and blocks
Our experienced teachers adapt the program to ensure individual interests and learning styles are met.
