Programs

Programs

The Whiz Kids program is holistic and encompasses key areas of the children’s learning and development. The programs are:

  • Whiz Kids Move: helps the children to develop their fine and gross motor skills through daily movement activities. The children learn about living active and healthy lives, lessons they will carry for life.
  • Whiz Kids Explore: children are encouraged to use their senses to engage with the world around them. They get their hands dirty and learn about early scientific principles. Together they conduct experiments and learn about the physical and natural world they live in.
  • Whiz Kids Create: with a focus on music, art and languages, the children develop their creative thinking. From drawing and painting to banging on drums, self-expression is encouraged.
  • Whiz Kids Self: this program supports the children’s social and emotional development, ensuring they feel safe and have a strong sense of belonging. 
  • Whiz Kids Sustainability: through hands-on lessons about recycling and hygiene, the children learn about sustainability practices and caring for the environment. 

 

About the curriculum

About the curriculum

Aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework, the Whiz Kids Educators follow a holistic curriculum that ultimately helps to prepare the children for the transition to school. Called Whiz Kids Learn, the curriculum was developed by experienced educators and based on the understanding that every child learns in their own unique way. 

The curriculum is designed to embed a lifelong love of learning in every child. They engage with books, develop their language skills and learn about the magic of science. The curriculum is taught across four different learning spaces:

  • Picasso’s Room (0-2 years): with routines tailored to each child, the focus in the Picasso’s Room is on building relationships between the children and their educators. They learn and play while developing their sense of belonging and wonder.
  • Mozart’s Room (2-3 years): the toddlers in the Mozart’s Room participate in interest-based activities that lead to ongoing investigation and new discoveries. They start to develop self-help skills and social skills, such as sharing with their peers.
  • Einstein’s Room (3-4 years): with a focus on play, the children take steps towards learning the skills they will need to succeed at school and beyond. They learn early reading and writing skills as well as phonemic awareness. They also develop their confidence as they learn more about themselves and the world around them.
  • Pascal’s Room (4-6 years): the preschoolers participate in a school readiness program that prepares them for the transition to big school. Beyond literacy and numeracy, the children also develop self-awareness, problem-solving and social skills, among others.
Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement

The Whiz Kids educators value open and honest communication with parents. They know that parents are the most important people in a child’s life and their engagement in their daily activities is critical. To support this, the educators are available to discuss the children’s learning with parents on a regular basis.

The educators use the conversations with parents to support the children’s learning. They start to build connections between home and the centre to enhance the children’s wellbeing and desire to learn.

Parents are also encouraged to get involved in the centre through activities such as cooking. They can participate in cooking experiences alongside the children and even share their family recipes.

Throughout each day, the educators update Kinderloop, the parent communication app, with information such as the children’s nutritional intake. Parents can access this information to feel more connected to their child’s day at Whiz Kids.

I have both my children at Whiz Kidz in Castle Hill and couldn’t recommend them enough. Having someone else watch your kids is one of the most daunting things for parents returning to work, but leaving them with the educators here, puts us at ease as they care for our children as if they were their own. The facilities are great, resources constantly updated, and the children are always busy doing craft, engaging in science experiments or outdoor play. My eldest child has been in both the Mozart and Einstein room and always talks about how great his day is, and how much fun he has had. The educators in each of these rooms have been fantastic, and have helped him grow, entertained his interests, and have encouraged great learning through play, reading, and other activities. My youngest, in the Picasso room is always greeted with excitement and is cared for. Even though the children are young, and have competing demands with their sleep schedules etc, the educators make an effort to engage them in craft, science experiments and other activities as well.<br>The educators are transparent, and will contact you if they have any concerns for your child e.g. “they haven’t had much water today, would you like us to offer milk instead (so they remain hydrated)”<br><br>The Xplor app allows parents to be aware of what their child has eaten, if they’ve had nappy changes, naps etc. when you are so unsure about how your return to work will be because you’re worried about your kids, this daycare centre will put you at ease.<br><br>If you are a parent looking for a centre to send your child, do a tour!

My son has been attending Whiz Kidz castle hills since the age of 10 months and my baby has been growing so well there. I can’t recommend this centre highly enough. They have such warm and caring staff which makes my life as a mom a lot easier. It assures me that my baby is in safe hands and is growing well.<br>Miss Mel, Miss Elsa and each of the educator are very kind and know each kid personally which is commendable. The centre with all these wonderful people has an exceptional positive vibe.<br>My first time visit to the centre itself was quite assuring and even while visiting multiple centres I was stuck with this one and honestly it was the best decision for my kid. Thank you to all the educators who have been taking really good care of all the kids.
