Koala Room, Bentleigh Childcare
Age Group: 3 – 4 Years
Class Size: 30
Your child is now preparing for his or her entry to formal education. Our goal at this age is to introduce slightly more structure into their play and learning with a continued emphasis on independence and freedom to explore.
Our Koala kids are given plenty of opportunities to express their creativity and individuality while sharing their ideas with their peers and working together to solve problems and collaborate on engaging projects that stimulate and entertain. A heightened awareness of the world around them is a hallmark of this age group, with children taking a more active role in caring for our herb and veggie garden, worm farm and Snowy the rabbit.
What your child will experience in this room:
Specialised Classes
Every week your child will be able to engage in different specialised classes such as cooking, art, sports and more. Linking in with their program and children’s interest.
Excursions and Exploration
Your child will begin venturing into the local community through thoughtfully planned outings that introduce them to the wider world around them. From local walks and Bush Kinder experiences to exploring beyond the centre, these early excursions help build confidence, spark curiosity, and support learning in diverse environments beyond the classroom.
Tailor-Made Curriculum
Our program is built on the children’s interests, developmental goals, and learning opportunities, with an integrated days-of-care and Kindergarten program your child can get the best start to their Kindergarten learning journey!
