About the Curriculum

About the Curriculum

“Let the child be the scriptwriter, director and the actor in their own play” - Magda Gerber

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 by experimenting. On any given day you can see the nursery children engaging in all types of play, water 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 and reading experiences.

On any given day the Toddler children 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 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 encourages active engagement in learning and supports a range of positive developmental outcomes including resilience, independence, critical thinking and creativity.

The oral language supports literacy learning. 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 development by engaging in rich discussions, introducing new vocabulary as part of everyday conversations, as well as singing, playing games, and reading with the children daily.

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, is supported through group learning environments. 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. Lastly, ensuring that all children are ready for the ‘big school’ by preparing them for all that ‘big school’ has to offer.

Health and Nutrition

Health and Nutrition

Our centre chef prepares and cooks healthy and 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.

Our centre offers children nutrient-rich, unprocessed, and seasonal whole foods – created to delight the fussiest eaters.

With a recent overhaul of the centre and a new managment team, Thuringowa world of learning has bloomed! The staff are caring, consierate and always take action where required. Safety is number 1 priority, Meals are organised to meet children's nutritional needs for the day with connection through Woolworths Programs. Children recieve their own learning plans, where all the children's learning is located. Aesthetic's of the centre have also increased and it is looking beautiful for a vintage building! Low staff turn over (which is rare in Childcare) is also another reason why my Son will not go anywhere else!!

Response from the owner 28 Oct 2025

Hi Shani, Thank you for the glowing 5-star review! We’re overjoyed that you found our staff to be caring, considerate and always take action where required. Knowing that our efforts are appreciated truly inspires us to keep striving for excellence. Kind regards, The World of Learning Team

We have been at this Childcare Centre for nearly six months, and we couldn’t be happier with the care and dedication they’ve shown to our son. During this time, we’ve watched him blossom both socially and developmentally, and it’s clear how much the staff contributes to his growth. Our experiences with the staff, particularly Montana and Shameka in the Nursery, have been exceptional. Montana takes the time every day to give us a thorough and thoughtful handover, which we always look forward to hearing. This daily update not only reassures us but has also made our son’s transition into daycare smooth and comfortable. Shameka, with her gentle, caring approach, shows endless patience and love for all the children in her care. Her dedication is evident, and it’s clear she genuinely cares for each child. We are so grateful for the nurturing environment this Centre provides, and we highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality childcare. - Kaillin & Jimmy
