Our Kindergarten Program

The Kindy Years

Our Kindergarten provides the essential foundational year for our Primary Years (P-6). Our goal is for every student to reach their potential by being confident and involved learners, who engage in quality and approved Early Years’ Curriculum and Co-Curricular experiences. Play is at the heart of our programs and we strongly believe that “children learn as they play. Most importantly, in play, children learn how to learn” (Fred Donaldson). Creative, fun, nature-based, construction and exploratory play are embedded and encouraged in our daily learning experiences.

BOOK A PERSONAL TOUR

We believe that children learn effectively from exploring their own interests, engaging in hands-on experiences and having the time to revisit aspects of their play. The children also engage in a variety of specialist lessons for French, Music, Sport and Library. We also encourage vertical friendships with our older students in the Primary school and host a Buddy Reading Program once a term. 

The collaborative role that the Kindergarten staff and families play in their child’s learning journey is highly valued at TAS. Our open classroom policy encourages parents to be involved in as much of the program as possible. Our classes are hosted in beautiful indoor and outdoor learning environments, led by Master and Bachelor of Education qualified teaching staff. Our teacher to student ratios are intentionally kept low to ensure students receive the necessary care and attention.

Philosophy

Our Philosophy statement includes the service’s values, beliefs and understandings about children and the ways they learn, families and the role of Educators. It guides all aspects of the Kindergarten practices and programs. Staff members, parents, children and community members contribute to the writing and regular review of our philosophy statement.

Curriculum

The Early Years Learning Framework and the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines informs the development of our Kindergarten programs for 3 to 5 year olds.

The Kindergarten recognises the value and richness of play as a stimulus for children’s learning and their ongoing engagement in meaningful experiences. As children play they approach new and revisited experiences with interest, ownership, empowerment and possibility. Educators create ‘Play Plans’ on a daily basis with the children to document and encourage their personal and group interests.

Queensland Government Funding

The Toowoomba Anglican School Kindergarten is proudly funded and supported by the Queensland Government.
