Preschool Curriculum
Catholic preschools enable children to take the first steps into Catholic education.
Our Catholic Preschool Curriculum aims to:
- provide quality education for all preschool students in a Catholic preschool context;
- build upon common language and shared understandings about what is significant in children’s learning in the early years;
- start with the children and their progression of learning, (ACT DET p2) with a curriculum based on sound understandings and knowledge about this particular early learning phase of children’s development (4 year olds);
- ensure that Catholic preschool structures and settings promote the integrated nature of children’s learning across all areas of development as well as within each child’s individual progression of learning;
- provide documentation of progress that maps each child’s learning journey;
- build quality learning environments that best support and extend each child ; and
- build positive relationships with parents and caregivers based on mutual trust and open communication.
