Our Learning Approach
Our C.O.R.E Literacy Program extends early reading and writing foundations, focusing on building a strong love of learning within a structured early education framework. Through hands-on experiences, children develop language and communication skills while gaining confidence in expressing ideas and storytelling.
At our Lakelands early learning centre, the C.O.R.E approach is delivered through strong educator–child relationships and Reggio Emilia-inspired environments. Learning is intentionally designed and connected to the local community, ensuring a high-quality and developmentally supportive educational experience.
C – Child-centred learning that recognises individual strengths, interests, and developmental stages
O – Opportunities maximised to extend learning outcomes and support holistic development
R – Reggio Emilia-inspired environments that promote inquiry, creativity, and exploration
