Each age group has dedicated educators who will focus on their specific development and needs in line with CECA licencing requirements.
OUR PHILOSOPHY
Contemporary, innovative & holistic play-based curriculum
At St Luke’s our curriculum consistently inspires self-confident, independent and inquisitive learners. Guided by the principles of Reggio Emilia early learning and underpinned by the Early years Framework for Australia (Belonging, Being and Becoming). St Luke’s children learn through play, inquiry-based learning.
When our children enter our Early Learning Community we offer literacy, numeracy, music, arts and library experiences. We foster and embody Christian values in an environment that nurtures peace and acceptance as well as learning success within a safe, caring, stable and protective environment that caters for individual needs. Its our role to work with your family in the development of your child.
