Possum Hollow Child Care Centre

Nursery Babes 0-22 months (approx)
In the nursery we strive to keep our environment as similar to home as possible. Parents are asked to give as much information about their home routine as possible to help with a comfortable transition into care. Daily information is written in individual communication books taken home each day, parents are asked to fill in some information each day as well. Babes enjoy a learning through play curriculum as well as planned experiences to enhance fine & gross motor skills, early language skills, sensory alertness and socialisation.

Toddlers 22 months - 2 years 8 months (approx)
Toddlers are individuals already respectfully exploring their environment and developing social and investigative traits. Toddlers are given choices within their curriculum and provided with learning experiences that offer language & literacy development, self help skills, risk assessment and independence whilst allowing them to maintain a routine that suits their age and stage of development. It is an important stage to allow time for personal growth of each individual child.

Pre -Kindy & Kindy Children 2 years 8 months - 4years (approx)
Our Pre Kindy & Kindy children are guided whilst their input is highly valued by our Early Childhood Teacher. Their curriculum is based on extending thinking and investigations whilst preparing them with further self help skills for formal school years.
Early mathematics, literacy and social skills are inclusive of everyday experiences as well as art, dramatic play, music and movement and collaborations with younger groups of children as expert role models.
