About the curriculum

About the curriculum

The Educators at Imagine Childcare and Kindergarten Kelso value the children, and their voices are at the centre of their programs. The embedded daily rhythms and individual classroom educational programs are influenced by the individual needs of each child and family. 

The centre’s daily rhythm allows the children to experience an indoor/outdoor play flow to their day. This enables the children to choose which environment they wish to experience. 

The indoor classrooms are strategically planned in order to create a calm and engaging environment. The Educators have areas within classrooms which promote solitary or social play, imaginative, or intentional teachings. The spacious outdoor environments increase the children’s ability to develop their gross motor skills and grow their appreciation for nature. 

The Educators pride themselves on prioritising the needs of each individual child. They use room ages as a guideline, and place new children into the service and transition existing children, by taking into account the individual child and family wishes. 

Children are cared for in the following groups:

  • Nursery 
  • Tiny Tots                    
  • Toddlers
  • Junior Kinder
  • Pre-Kinder 
  • Preschool

 

Health & Nutrition

Health & Nutrition

The centre understands that nutrition plays an important role in each child’s physical development as well as their attitudes towards healthy food.

All of the meals and snacks are prepared onsite by professional qualified chefs every day. The children work alongside the Educators to care for the centre’s vegetable patches, and these vegetables are then used in the kitchen or for cooking experiences with the children.

The Educators use meal time as an opportunity to share positive experiences around food and to help children develop social skills such as sharing and turn taking. They role model positive behaviours and attitudes, and involve the children in the menu planning.

All food allergies, intolerances, cultural requirements and family preferences are taken into account by consulting with parents when meal planning for the children. The children’s absolute favourite lunch is tacos - everyone serves themselves and eats together in a social setting.

Programs

Programs

Morning

Tess is ten months old and loves to play outside with her friends when she first arrives. She helps her Educator check on the veggie patch and give the plants some water.

Lunchtime

Tess has woken up from her nap and is playing with some soft blocks on the mat with her friends and an Educator. She is learning how to make a tower and then knock it down.

Afternoon

The children are enjoying some music with their Educators, who are singing some nursery rhymes. Tess claps along to the familiar tunes.

My son absolutely loves going to Grow Early Education Kelso. Every day he is there he comes home excited to tell me and his dad about all the fun things he has done that day. Just like in the photo where he is pouring the oil to make a lava lamp! We recommend Grow to anyone that asks where we send our son and to friends beginning their Early Education journey with their little ones.
