Nursery Program (Babies)

We work to create a stable and consistent environment that children feel comfortable in.

Nursery Room

Our Nursery Room works to create a stable and consistent environment that children feel comfortable in. We maintain consistency by ensuring that children in this room are seeing the same educators every day and reflecting routine from home into a routine at the centre.

The nursery room focuses on sensory interest-based activities that help children develop their fine and gross motor skills. Children in the nursery are nurtured and nourished with care from a team of highly experienced and warm educators.

The children in our nursery room engage in many activities that will develop their physical and mental development. This includes arts and crafts, water play and reading books to stimulate their curiosity. The children also take part in outdoor play twice a day where they work on their skills such as climbing, running, throwing, and catching.

Curriculum

Every day is an opportunity for kids to learn through play. We believe education starts with a child’s interest, we simply explore this interest and add learning opportunities along the way.

The Cool School Curriculum

At Cool Bananas your child will enjoy exploring and playing in our welcoming and indoor and outdoor environments. We have numerous play spaces for our children to enjoy – including home corners, book corner, our sandpit, cubby houses, bike track, softfall areas and obstacle courses!

We believe education starts with a child’s interest, we simply explore this interest and add learning opporunities along the way. We begin to develop self-help skills and independence while exploring the world and environment around us. Children commonly ask their teachers ‘But Why?’ and we enjoy investigating the answers.

Activity Program

The developmental areas covered in the Centre Program are:

  • Cognitive

  • Language

  • Physical Motor Skills
