About Young Explorers Preschool and Long day care
We believe children are best served by drawing perspective and insight from many different disciplines, philosophers and pedagogy, from Australia and overseas. We stay up to date with the ongoing research into early childhood, regularly assess and examine our processes and practices in the light of new ideas, and seek to integrate the best elements.
Children are neither vessels to be filled nor people whose time must be occupied; they are strong, capable, and resilient researchers, exploring themselves and their environment. Children have the ability, dexterity, and passion to devour knowledge, requiring only the freedom to explore and experiment. We are nurturers and caregivers, providing a safe environment for this exploration to take place, but we are also collaborators & co-researchers.
We recognise that children are competent individuals, each of whom we seek to know and respect. We gain insight into both the characteristics and the interests of each child through collaborating with parents, listening to the child, and observing their actions and interactions. Based on these discoveries we build environments and opportunities for them to safely explore and develop their thoughts and understandings. We encourage them to express these in any of the hundred languages for children, which include drawing, sculpture, dramatic play, movement and music.
