​

These following exciting programs are included in our School Readiness program:

Field Trip

 

Field trips offer numerous benefits for children aged 2.5 to 5. They provide hands-on learning experiences that enhance their understanding of the world around them. These trips can also improve social skills as children interact with peers in new environments. Additionally, field trips stimulate curiosity and excitement about learning, fostering a love for exploration and discovery at a young age.

Our Lifelong Learning School Readiness Curriculum emphasizes enquirer-based projects and foundation academic skills to support children’s critical 21st-century school readiness development.

First Nations Education

 

First Nations education for children aged 2.5 to 5 years old emphasizes the importance of cultural identity and language preservation. Through storytelling, traditional activities, and the inclusion of elders in the learning process, young children develop a strong sense of belonging and respect for their heritage.

 

This approach not only enhances their cognitive and social development but also instills values of community, environmental stewardship, and resilience. By integrating Indigenous knowledge with early childhood education, these programs lay a foundation for lifelong learning and cultural pride.

Life Cycle Learning

Life cycle learning for children aged 2.5 to 5 years old focuses on helping them understand the stages of growth and change in living things. This can include simple activities and lessons about the life cycles of plants, insects, and animals, which help young children grasp the concepts of birth, growth, reproduction, and death. By using age-appropriate stories, songs, and hands-on activities like planting seeds or observing caterpillars turning into butterflies, children can develop a sense of curiosity and respect for nature. This foundational knowledge fosters a deeper understanding of the natural world and their place within it.

​

Dance & Performance

 

Dancing and performing offer numerous benefits for children aged 2.5 to 5. These activities help develop their motor skills and coordination as they learn to control their movements. Additionally, dance fosters creativity and self-expression, allowing kids to explore different ways to convey emotions and ideas. Participating in performances also boosts their confidence and social skills, as they learn to work in groups and present themselves in front of an audience. Overall, dance and performance activities play a crucial role in the holistic development of young children.

​

We hire professional dance instructors to ensure the health and safety of children during activities. Through expert guidance, children not only learn proper dance techniques but also enhance their physical fitness and confidence in a joyful environment. Dance activities help improve coordination, flexibility, and social skills, laying a solid foundation for their overall development.

What Will Your Child Learn?
 

Magic Education Bilingual Child Care qualified teachers and experienced educators are trained in Affinity Education's Lifelong Learning Curriculum, Australia's most advanced approach to early education. It is based on the Australian Early Years Learning Framework, the approved play-based approach to early education for children before they begin primary school, and offers a rich combination of child-led learning and intentional teaching experiences. Our aim at Magic Education Bilingual Child Care is to support every child to develop in four very important areas: emotional confidence, social connectivity, foundational learning, and physical health and well being.

Emotional Confidence
 

Your child will explore their identity; learn to express and understand emotions in themselves and in others; develop confidence in their own abilities; and build resilience. These support a confident start to the new environment and routines at school.

Social Connectivity

 

Your child will learn to engage with others; to develop social skills such as listening, sharing and turn taking; and understand their impact on others. These help to establish new relationships and connections with others at school.

Foundational Learning

 

Your child will learn early literacy and numeracy skills; the use of writing implements; and research, discovery and creative thinking. These are the important beginnings to writing, reading, math and problem-solving required for the academic side of school.

Physical Health & Well being

 

Your child will learn about healthy living; increase independence in self-care practices; and enhance physical skills. These ensure your child is equipped to physically care for themselves and engage in schoolyard play in the school environment.
