Taree & District Preschool

Taree & District Preschool recognises that diversity contributes to the rich tapestry of our preschool community. All children and families will be treated equally without bias or prejudice and be respected in support of their background, race, religion, social-economic status and diverse family network. We also respect the personal attributes and philosophies of our Educators.

We use a play based, emergent style curriculum that involves collaborative partnerships between educators, children and families and provides a balance between child-led, child initiated and intentional teaching.

Children are given large blocks of time for uninterrupted work and play in the indoor and outdoor environments to promote sustained conversations and deeper learning.

Children will be given every opportunity to build self-help skills, independence, resilience and self-esteem in daily experiences, provided in an environment that offers assistance, acknowledgement and encouragement to enable children to attempt tasks more confidently and effectively tomorrow.

The preschool community will also encourage children to become aware of their global responsibility, and they will be given opportunities to be productive and positive contributors to human equality and our planet’s sustainability.
