🎨 Learning Through Play

At the heart of Sunshine Childcare is our belief that play is the most effective way for young children to learn. Our curriculum follows the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and is based on five learning outcomes:

1. Children have a strong sense of identity
   
2. Children are connected with and contribute to their world
   
3. Children have a strong sense of wellbeing
   
4. Children are confident and involved learners
   
5. Children are effective communicators
   

Through hands-on activities, group collaboration, and guided exploration, children in Sunshine Childcare develop essential skills for school and life.

Some of our daily learning activities include:

• Storytelling and early literacy games
  
• Number concepts through play
  
• Creative art and sensory experiences
  
• Group play that encourages social skills
  
• Physical development through dance, sports, and outdoor games
  
• Music and movement sessions
