Curriculum

What are the children learning? In Australia the early childhood education sector strives to provide "Universal Access" to all 4 year olds. It aims to give them access to a university qualified teacher-led kindergarten program in the year before transitioning to formal schooling. We follow a national framework called the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and the QLD implementation of this framework is called the QLD Kindergarten Learning Guidelines (QKLG). Our experienced and qualified educators implement these frameworks into the educational program at Coolum Kindy. This curriculum includes all of the interactions, experiences, activities, routines and events that are planned and unplanned that occur in our environment designed to foster children's learning and development.
