Two Peas in a Pod Early Learning Centre

Welcome to Two Peas in a Pod Early Learning Centre!

Two Peas in a Pod Early Learning Centre provides an environment and learning culture for children to be active and engaged learners. A child’s ability is one factor in achievement; however, the amount of effort a child makes has, even more to do with their success in learning. Each child has the natural ability to question, interpret and understand the world around them. The educational focus is on the individual strengths and needs of the child and children are always encouraged to explore, have opinions and provide suggestions.

Reggio Emilia was inspired by a strong emphasis on the importance of family and community and the belief it ‘takes a village to raise a child’

Therefore, at Two Peas in a pod Early Learning Centre we offer open-ended learning opportunities and inquiry-based teaching to support children’s growth and development in all areas. We believe it is important to provide opportunities for children to experiment, discover, explore, create, investigate, practice theories, solve problems and express ideas with the support of other children and the educators. We believe in celebrating children’s play, discoveries and learning through reflection and meaningful documentation.

We believe the best way to work with you and your child is by building a partnership of care.

To do this we want you to feel:

• Welcomed, recognised, acknowledged and respected by all our educators.
• That your child is really known by, and really knows, the people who care for him or her.
• You are given lots of information about what is occurring and are asked for your views.
• You are involved in making decisions about your child’s experiences.
• You and your child are received and greeted upon arrival.
• Your child is happy, secure and engaged.
• Your child is not just looked after but really cared for.
