Child's Play ELC - Torquay

A little fun, big smiles, and plenty of energy! ⚽️💚 From dribbling through the hoops to getting hands-on with the ball, these little stars are learning, playing, and having the best time! 🌈🥅✨

Room 4 have been busy creating their own animal habitats as part of their room project showcasing their creativity and sustainable practices

Celebrating creativity and culture through these beautiful Aboriginal-inspired artworks, proudly displayed by our children. 🎨❤️

🔢 Numeracy in Play 🔢

Numeracy learning happens naturally through play every day! From counting and sorting to recognising shapes, comparing sizes and exploring patterns, our children are building important early mathematical skills through hands-on experiences. 🌟💜

🍕 Pizza Making Through Play! 🍕

Our little chefs have been busy creating their very own pizzas through imaginative play! From choosing pretend toppings to preparing and serving their creations, the children shared ideas, worked alongside their friends and brought their imaginations to life!! 🍕👩‍🍳✨

🌿 Learning Environments That Inspire 🌿

Our learning environments are thoughtfully created to give children the freedom to choose, explore and create. ✨

Through open-ended resources and inviting spaces, children can follow their own interests, make decisions, use their imagination and bring their ideas to life. Every choice is an opportunity to build confidence, independence, creativity and a love of learning. 💜

When children have the freedom to lead their play, the possibilities are endless!

🧪 Little Scientists at Work! 🔬✨

Learning through hands-on science experiments encourages our children to explore, predict, observe and ask questions. Through curiosity and discovery, we are building early problem-solving skills and a love of learning! 🌟

🤝 Collaboration in Action! 🪣✨

Working together to create a sand wall! The children collaborated as a team to fill the bucket, tap the sand and carefully turn it out, building their communication, teamwork and problem-solving skills through play. 💜

☕🫖 In Room 1, the children are exploring a High Tea experience as part of their learning program. This provocation supports opportunities for role play, social interaction, and developing language as the children engage in setting up, serving, and sharing in their imaginative play. 💜

Friendship is one of the greatest gifts we can nurture in early childhood. 💛

This week, our affirmation is “I am a good friend.”

At Child’s Play ELC, we celebrate the beautiful friendships that grow each day as children learn, play, and support one another. 🌈✨
