We work hard to create a variety of learning experiences that are suitable for each child’s developmental stage and are in line with the children’s current interests. Play allows and encourages learning to occur where children can express their personality and uniqueness. We value individuality so the learning experiences that we provide are designed to your child’s interest and specific needs.
We value outdoor play at Bulleen Kids Early Learning Centre, as it allows your child to build their gross motor skills and explore the outdoor environment. We have an outdoor playground which gives children the opportunity to run, climb and practice their exploration techniques with our sandpit, bikes, balancing beams, slides, climbing equipment and more.
Group time is a scheduled time where children and the room leader come together to learn as a group. We share ideas, listen, and engage with each other. During this time, a variety of experiences are explored such as reading, singing and educational activities.
Group time allows educators to encourage conversations with children about their current interests, likes and future ideas. At Bulleen Kids Early Learning Centre, children are encouraged and provided with the opportunities to create connections between their prior experiences and new learning that will occur at our centre.
At Bulleen Kids Early Learning Centre, we run various programs to ensure that your child gets the best start in life. Our programs provide opportunities for your child to develop their own understanding of the world in which they live in and equip them with the skills they need to be successful learners.
Here are some of the educational programs that we offer:
Kids Bop – Dance and Movement Session
