Early Childhood

The early childhood years are critical in the development of the whole child. In this time, children are growing and developing spiritually, linguistically, cognitively, socially, emotionally, physically, and creatively. Emmaus Catholic Primary School’s early childhood education offers an impactful program that facilitates the development of the whole child though the vehicle of “purposeful play”.

The learning outcomes are:

• Children have a strong sense of identity
• Children are connected with and contribute to their world
• Children have a strong sense of well-being
• Children are confident and involved learners
• Children are effective communicators.

These are achieved through the strong relationships developed with families and the stimulating play environment that provokes children to explore, question, collaborate and reflect.

At Emmaus Catholic Primary School, guided by our motto “Journeying Together,” we support our early learners as they explore, grow, and develop into confident, creative, and resilient individuals. Through inquiry, wonder, and play, we provide dynamic early childhood experiences in a nurturing environment that values every child’s unique background and fosters their holistic development.
