Reggio Emilia Inspired Learning
Explorers Early Learning are respectful of children, their rights, and their desire to learn. They also believe that every child brings with them a deep curiosity that drives their interest to understand their world and their place within it. Their goal is to embrace this curiosity, challenge each child’s thinking and facilitate their eagerness to learn and construct understanding as part of our curriculum inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach.
Nutritional Menu
Approved by Nutrition Australia, our menu features Indigenous herbs and freshly grown fruits and veggies from our edible gardens which are tended to by our Explorers community. We are very proud of our menu that is created collectively by our in-house chefs and nutritionists. Assessed by the Healthy Eating Advisory Service, our menu exceeds the menu planning guidelines for healthy eating from Nutrition Australia.
Our little Explorers are provided with breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late fruit snack. We provide a progressive approach to mealtime and specific dietary requirements to accommodate individual needs.
Indoor/Outdoor Program
Our Indoor/Outdoor Program is a fundamental part of our curriculum. At Explorers they create moments, experiences, and spaces for our children to connect with the natural world. They purposely design our environments to encourage curiosity, discovery, and a sense of wonder. The curriculum provides opportunities for children to actively explore both indoor and outdoor classrooms. Explorers Early Learning indoor and outdoor environments include a variety of natural elements to provide opportunities for children to explore the natural world. Their curriculum also includes the preservation of the world, and the children actively manage and care for centre pets, composting programs, community gardens, and worm farm.
At Explorers, they bring the outdoors, indoors. They often use natural materials such as wood, shells, leaves, plants, stones, and much more within their indoor learning experiences. Children are encouraged to explore these materials and use them within their play.
Kinder Program
Taught by Bachelor-qualified Teachers, the Government funded Kindergarten Program is designed for 3- and 4-year-olds, using a play-based approach that emphasises learning through exploration and investigation. The program encourages children to be creative in all areas, whether it is problem solving or the expressive arts. It also encourages lateral thinking and positive social interactions. The program will run within long day care hours.
