At Little Scholars, we provide our incredible four-year-olds with opportunities for experiment and play, and help them get ready for the next big step in their lives – Prep.
Our degree-qualified early childhood teachers (ECT) plan daily activities in kindergarten that encourage curiosity, creativity, self-expression and socialisation in every child. We believe that learning should be fun, so each day is filled with educational play experiences designed to engage, challenge and delight your little explorer.
Four-year-olds in kindy begin to prepare for prep by learning important skills such as developing reading, writing and numeracy, using language to communicate ideas, feelings and needs, becoming more independent and confident in their abilities, and more.
Our curriculum is created jointly with our children. Our four-year-olds are provided the time and space to explore, imagine, create, problem solve and develop social groups, and guided by educators to find their individual learning journey.
Read about our transition to school program:
We practice life skills such as using the toilet independently, getting dressed and putting on shoes, opening lunch boxes and drink bottles, packing up after play, improve fine motor skills with activities like using scissors, holding pencils/crayons between thumb and two fingers, help physical development with activities like climbing playgrounds and obstacle courses, running, hoping and jumping with increasing agility.
We believe getting out in nature is important for our little scholars, so Little Scholars get out regularly into the bush and to the beach to play, learn and interact with the great outdoors on bush and beach kinder. We also provide other exceptional extra-curricular programs by experts in their field to get energetic bodies and minds moving, including music and dance classes, sports, swimming lessons, and more.
Most importantly, our four-year-olds learn through play, and we make sure there’s ample time for play, art, dance and creativity. We foster their imagination and discovery with endless resources and creative play opportunities.
Our Brisbane and Gold Coast childcare centres provide a safe, caring and educational environment that encourages children to be curious, creative and confident.
Our first priority is the growth and development of your child; we nurture, teach and guide your child to developing all the skills that will allow them to succeed in life. Contact us today to book a tour of one of our Brisbane or Gold Coast campuses – we look forward to meeting you!
