At Swan Reach and District Pre-School we aim to
provide the highest quality care and education for young children, while
supporting the needs of families in our community. Our program and environment
are play-based and promote a caring, fair and inclusive learning community. Our
centre acknowledges and respects a wide diversity of cultures, religions and
backgrounds. Our educators strive to nurture and support each
child to achieve their fullest potential. Children are given a chance to
investigate, grow, develop relationships and explore interests through creating
a sense of security and belonging. We provide a balance between child led, child
initiated and educator-supported learning. Educators plan and create learning
environments that encourage children to explore, solve problems, create and
construct. We have strong ties to our local community, with
regular visits from local services and strong involvement from our parent
community. Our local schools also support the transition process with visits in our
4-year-old program from local Prep teachers and by acting as hosts for special
excursions.
