Preschool


Maribyrnong Preschool Philosophy

The Maribyrnong Preschool philosophy builds upon the school’s vision statement and the principles and practices of the Early Years Learning Framework. We believe that children are capable, creative, confident, co-contributors and active participants in their own learning. We are part of the dynamic learning hub that reflects the beliefs and values of the broader community and have a strong focus on social justice, equity and inclusion.

Our Preschool Practice Values (in child friendly language):

  • we value play – it is how we learn best
  • our teachers believe in each of us as capable learners
  • we respect each other and our differences
  • we celebrate each other for who we are
  • we reflect on our learning
  • we can show you our learning
  • our team is made up of our families, our friends, our teachers, ourselves
  • our learning spaces look and are inviting
  • we know what our education journey looks like
  • we respect each other
  • we believe in looking after our world
