Our program has been carefully designed to help children aged 3-5 years old build confidence and develop essential skills for a successful transition to primary school:
At Little Scribblers, our Pre-Kinder and Kindergarten classes offer a rich tapestry of early development opportunities for children aged 3-5 years, meticulously crafted to align with the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF), the National Quality Framework (NQF), and elements from both Reggio and Montessori philosophies. Our curriculum seamlessly integrates key aspects of the first-year primary school curriculum in both New South Wales (NSW) and Victoria (VIC), ensuring a smooth transition into formal education while nurturing each child's unique strengths and interests.
We encourage young minds to explore, discover, and grow within our secure and encouraging environments. Our dedicated educators are committed to offering personalised attention and guidance, laying the foundation for a lifelong journey of curiosity and academic achievement.
Our program has been carefully designed to help children aged 3-5 years old build confidence and develop essential skills for a successful transition to primary school:
The EYLF is a key component of Australia’s National Quality Framework (NQF) for early childhood education and care. It aims to promote the continuous development of education and care services across the country. The EYLF places special emphasis on play-based learning and acknowledges the significance of communication and language (including early literacy and numeracy) as well as social and emotional development.
We tailor our learning programme for children aged 3-5 years, blending the best educational philosophies and frameworks. Rooted in the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and the National Quality Framework (NQF), our curriculum is finely tuned to nurture each child's holistic development. Drawing inspiration from the Reggio and Montessori philosophies, we encourage hands-on exploration and self-directed learning, fostering curiosity and creativity.
Through a balance of structured activities and child-led experiences, we provide a rich learning environment that promotes social, emotional, cognitive, and physical growth. At Little Scribblers, we lay the foundation for a lifetime of learning success. Your child will learn while having fun.
We provide complimentary School Readiness Vision Screenings for all children prior to the start of the school year.
Children rarely complain of eye problems, which is often because they do not realise they cannot see well and therefore are unaware of the problem. Occasionally, a child may have exceptional vision in one eye while the other eye has poor vision. A vision exam will detect these conditions.
Vision problems in children that go undetected can cause school and daily life difficulties, so it is essential to have your child’s vision examined before they begin school. Typically, the sooner a vision problem is detected, the more effectively it can be treated.
Our qualified Orthoptist will conduct a thorough vision and ocular examination on your child that goes beyond the standard preschool distance vision examination. This evaluation includes:
There are no eye drops used during examinations, and they are tailored to the individual capabilities of each child. Children who have not yet begun or mastered letter reading are given specialised assessments.
At Little Scribblers, we prioritise the social, emotional, and cognitive development of children aged 3–5 years. Our programme promotes curiosity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.
We encourage children to ask questions, explore their interests, and make connections with the world around them through enquiry-based learning and open-ended exploration.
By intertwining these principles, we empower children to become confident, compassionate, and lifelong learners.
Starting kindergarten is an exciting milestone and at Little Scribblers, we love to make it extra special! Every child who joins our Kindergarten Program receives a free Kindergarten Pack, which includes:
Belonging is at the heart of the Little Scribblers experience. It's about fostering connections with family, community, culture, and the environment. Through meaningful relationships and a supportive atmosphere, children develop a strong sense of identity and security, laying the groundwork for a fulfilling life.
Being at Little Scribblers means embracing the present moment. It's a time for children to explore, play, and engage in activities that bring them joy and fulfillment. With the freedom to be themselves, children develop confidence, resilience, and a love for learning.
Becoming is the journey of growth and development that unfolds in our classrooms. As children navigate this transformative period, they begin to shape their sense of self and forge their path in the world. Our programme empowers children to explore their interests, discover their strengths, and cultivate the skills they need to thrive in school and beyond.
At Little Scribblers, we prioritise the safety and well-being of every child in our care. Our early childhood safety measures encompass:

We maintain strict safety protocols, including thorough background checks for staff, secure entry systems, and regular safety assessments of our facilities. Additionally, we ensure that all equipment and materials are age-appropriate and meet safety standards to minimise any risks.
These measures are integral to creating a nurturing and secure environment where children can learn, grow, and thrive with confidence.
