In the Emu room, we work with families to provide children with a stimulating and age-appropriate program to suit their child based on their interests and needs.

Emu Room Intentions
- Our learning is individual, group-based and spontaneous. We aim to provide a happy environment in which children are able to instigate and extend their own learning through affection, reassurance, support and respect.
- Through guidance and role modelling, we aim to assist children in developing the skills needed for independence and self-confidence.
- Language development is fostered through group times, conversations, music and play. We believe that language is developed through role modelling, meaningful experiences, listening and experimenting.
- The children are involved in positive experiences with educators and their peers. Through interaction, children develop positive attitudes towards themselves, their families, their peers, and the community as a whole.
- Children are provided with opportunities to learn about their emotions and about empathy for others. They are given opportunities to learn how to express themselves appropriately and learn self-discipline.
- We aim to enhance the children’s fine and gross motor skills by setting up our environment, both indoors and out, to challenge children. The environment includes a wide range of activities which encourage the development of large muscles, small muscles and coordination.
