Nursery Space: 6 weeks – 2 years

Learning starts from before birth, and our Educators have created a welcoming and nurturing nursery environment where each baby feels safe to explore and discover new things - through their senses, their communication and cues (body language, facial expression and sounds) and through experimentation. On any given day you can see the nursery children engaging in all types of play including sensory play, music time, story time and more. Every day provides a brand new, exciting adventure for our babies to support their development, learning and wellbeing.

Toddler Space: 2 - 3 years

Our teachers and educators encourage the children to learn through play to help enhance their sensory-motor development. This happens through carefully planned music, dance, games, role playing and reading experiences.

On any given day the Toddlers can be seen developing their numeracy by building a tower, sorting objects, pointing and identifying shapes and patterns and participating in counting songs and games.

Children in our toddler space are encouraged to participate in group play. Group play is important as it helps our toddlers develop important social skills such as, turn-taking, developing self-confidence and emotional self-regulation. Our skilled team helps children through talking, planning and role modelling.

Kindergarten Space: 3 – 6 years

Kindergarten is a unique time for learning with peers and developing skills for later learning including confidence and curiosity, important skills for starting school. Our play-based program has school readiness at its core, encouraging active engagement in learning and supporting a range of positive developmental outcomes including resilience, independence, critical thinking and creativity.

The oral language supports literacy learning and a child’s oral language ability is the best predictor for later success in learning to read and write. Hearing the sounds within a language is the first critical step for all literacy learning. Our team supports our Kindergarten children's literacy development by engaging in rich discussions, reading, storytelling, dramatic play and experimentation all of which introduce new vocabulary as part of everyday conversations.

Throughout the Kindergarten year, children use their language to share ideas, ask questions, express themselves, and connect with peers and adults in social settings.

Social-emotional skills, including the ability to self-regulate emotions, are supported through group learning experiences. Our team supports each child’s social and emotional development by labelling and talking about emotions and supporting appropriate responses as together, they engage in new and challenging situations. Our goal in the Kindergarten year is to prepare children and families for a smooth transition to primary school.

Our centre chef prepares and cooks nutritious meals daily, catering to the unique dietary requirements of every child. We believe that by encouraging active participation (such as growing their own fruit and vegetables, preparing, and finally cooking!) children learn to appreciate and understand the importance of healthy eating across a wide variety of food.

Our centre offers seasonal whole food-based menus – created to delight the fussiest eaters.

Hi my name is Adeline, and I am the Centre Manager here at Rangeville Early Education Centre. I started working in early learning in 2014. I joined the team at Rangeville Early Education Centre in 2016. I hold a Diploma in Early Childhood Education and Care.

I believe that early childhood education plays a critical role in shaping a child's future, and I am proud to be a part of that process. I was particularly inspired by the idea of creating a safe and nurturing environment where children could learn and grow and where families could feel supported and valued.

Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with children of different ages, backgrounds, and abilities, and I found that each child brings their unique interests, strengths, and challenges to the learning environment. Therefore, it's essential to approach teaching with a child-centred approach, where each child's unique needs and abilities are taken into consideration. I have also learned that young children learn best through play, exploration, and hands-on experiences, so it's important to provide a safe and engaging environment that encourages exploration and discovery. Throughout my career, I have gained a wealth of experience in developing and implementing educational programs that are both engaging and age-appropriate. I strive to create an inclusive, diverse, and culturally responsive learning environment where children feel valued and respected. I also believe in providing opportunities for children to be actively involved in their learning and to follow their interests and passions.

Our centre provides a high-quality, safe and nurturing environment for children. We offer a wide range of activities designed to promote learning through play, exploration, and hands-on experiences. Our educators can offer advice on behaviour management, learning difficulties, and developmental milestones. In summary, attending a dedicated early childhood education and care centre offers children a range of benefits that are simply impossible to replicate at home.

We have dedicated staff members who are experienced and trained in early childhood education and care and understand young children's unique needs and abilities. Many of our team members come from multicultural backgrounds and are always eager to share their cultural experiences and learn from others. We have several team members who have been with us for up to 20 years, which speaks to the dedication and passion they bring to their work. Despite the diversity in our team, we all share a common goal: to provide the best possible care and education to the children in our centre.

As an early childhood educator, I believe that building strong relationships with families is essential for creating a positive and supportive learning environment for children. I strive to communicate regularly with families and to keep them informed about their child's progress and development. I try to address any issues or concerns as quickly and effectively as possible and to work collaboratively with families to find solutions. I offer workshops and seminars on topics such as child development, behaviour management, and literacy, and I provide families with resources such as books, articles, and websites to support their learning. Our team strive to create a warm and welcoming environment where families feel comfortable and supported.
