Our Approach
The health, safety and well-being of the children and staff is paramount in an ECD centre. An ECD centre should be play-based and informal, where a classroom is teacher facilitated and child-led. Children need to learn through play, through repetition, through their own exploration and discovery.
DEVELOPMENTAL AREAS OF LEARNING
The ELDAs
Well-being
Identity and Belonging
Communicating
Exploring Mathematics
Creativity
Knowledge and Understanding of the World
Make Your Own Resources
Making your own resources is not only environmentally friendly and (mostly) free, it also gives a child ownership when they have played a part in creating that poster or number line in the classroom. In our workshops and ECD centres we emphasise this approach.
