An early learning centre for your child to strive

Welcome to Strive Early Learning Centre

Where we Nurture your child to play, grow and strive!

At Strive Early Learning Centre we believe the essence of a nurturing environment is respect, especially when it comes to our youngest members of the community. Respecting children is more than just a virtue; it’s a fundamental approach that shapes their growth and development. From the tenderest of ages, every interaction, every word spoken, and every decision made in an early childhood setting profoundly influences a child’s sense of self-worth and belonging. By valuing their perspectives, honouring their emotions, and acknowledging their autonomy, we foster an environment where children feel empowered, heard, and respected.

In this sanctuary of care, respect isn’t just a concept; it’s the cornerstone upon which we build a foundation of trust, understanding, and nurturing relationships that guide children towards a future of confidence, compassion, and limitless potential.

Our Core Values

Where we Nurture Your Child To Play, Grow and Strive!

Pedagogy

“The art of teaching.” Our pedagogy is the way we strive to work with children. It includes what we do, how we do it and how we think about what we do. Our pedagogy is usually based on a combination of our own beliefs, our experiences and our professional knowledge about children and education. By regularly reflecting we strive to make sure that our pedagogy is up-to-date and effective.

Respect

Striving to teach children to respect themselves, others and the environment fosters a positive and inclusive atmosphere. Valuing diversity and treating everyone with dignity and kindness are key components of this value.

Inclusion

Embracing diversity and creating an inclusive environment where every child feels welcomed, valued and accepted regardless of their age, culture, background or ability. We strive to make sure that everyone is included and provided with the right to an equitable education.

Continuous Improvement

Striving for continuous improvement in early childhood practices, policies, and programs ensures the highest quality of care and education for children. Reflecting on experiences, seeking feedback, and implementing best practices contribute to ongoing growth and excellence.

Our Curriculum

Infants and Toddler Program

At Strive Early Learning, we believe in fostering a love for learning through a curriculum that respects and nurtures each child’s unique developmental journey. Our Infant & Toddler program follows the RIE Educaring Approach, emphasizing respectful, unhurried interactions that align with each child’s natural rhythms. This foundation of trust and security is crucial for their emotional and cognitive growth. For our Prep School Program, we blend Reggio Emilia and Montessori philosophies to create a rich, stimulating environment. Children engage in a variety of activities that cater to their multiple intelligences, promoting independence, collaboration, and curiosity.

Our Pre-Lit (Pre-Literacy) Program for children aged 3 to 5 focuses on essential early literacy skills. Activities in language development, phonological awareness, print awareness, alphabet knowledge, and emergent writing are designed to prepare children for future academic success. Regular storybook reading sessions further instil a love for books and reading. Through these thoughtfully integrated approaches, we provide a comprehensive, respectful, and enriching educational experience that supports your child’s holistic development and lifelong passion for learning.
