At Little Mounties Preschool we value nutrition believing in the adage “healthy body, healthy mind”. Which is why we have teamed up with Kids Gourmet Food, a company that prides itself on providing children with 5 nutritious, freshly cooked meals a day to ensure that your child is properly taken care of. The upside is that children enjoy meal times now more than ever!

Active kids are happy kids. Your child’s health is important to us and at Little Mounties Preschool we believe that teaching children to exercise now is a great way to encourage them to do it habitually.

Our daycare in Mount Pritchard is unique in its cultural diversity. To celebrate this, we try to introduce children to a wide range of social and cultural experiences, values and approaches to the world so they can understand the beauty of diversity while learning empathy and problem solving creatively. 

It is through these social and critical thinking skills that we encourage them to grow into  autonomous and active members of society.

Family and community focused

At our daycare center in Mount Pritchard, we provide a quality program for our children by creating partnerships with our families and local communities. Through establishing a strong sense of belonging in children from an early age they are given the best start in life. This is achieved through our partnership with families as we believe that family involvement is integral to delivering a high-quality program with worthwhile learning outcomes. We want to work with you in aiding the development of your child. 

Early learning

Our program works to prepare your child with language and literacy, creative and expressive arts, mathematics, science, and social and emotional development as they work towards the learning outcomes expressed in the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) – ‘Belonging, Being & Becoming.’

We do this using your child’s strengths and interests, so they can have a foundation of knowledge and the confidence necessary to enter Kindergarten. Our child – centered approach to learning means that we implement a flexible program to provide for individual learning styles. 

Fresh Green Outdoors

We believe children benefit from  interacting with each other and their environment. Our daycare centre has a lovely outdoor area, playground and vegetable patch as we encourage interactions with the natural environment and sustainability. 

At Little Mounties Preschool, we work hard to give your children the best start in life in their learning, relationships and their sense of self. We believe children are capable, resourceful learners and who are active contributors to their own learning as they strive to learn about and experience their world. We work with you and your child to develop their strengths and interests. 

We also give them new experiences to expand their horizons and develop new passions and talents, with different approaches to learning so that every child’s learning style can be catered to. Our program is based on the national EYLF framework as we want every child to be ready and excited for learning when they first start school.

Best Vacation Care in Mount Pritchard

At Little Mounties, we know that parents are not always as free as their children are during the school holidays. We also understand that sometimes your child misses their friends or the activities available at Little Mounties to have fun. Our Mount Pritchard vacation care offers a great option for your child to engage with a supportive, fun community while school is closed. 

Fun activities

Our team will help them wind down from their schooling, as well as offering them the chance to get into some indoor and outdoor activities they’ll love! 

With paint, holiday DIY arts and crafts, ball games, and collaborative teamwork activities. As well as some fun outdoor excursions, your child will be excited for the school holidays!

Exercise doesn’t just make us healthy and happy, with its release of endorphin. It builds up our body’s capacity to do things like run, jump, aim and throw. Which can help your child have a base or of PE knowledge to bring into school, or a chance for improvement. That’s not all. Besides exercise that helps kids stay in shape, our kids enjoy five fresh and healthy catered meals.

Learning

We believe that children like learning, and we work with our kids to deliver a quality custom program that takes into account their strengths and interests. So everyone can learn more about things that they’re passionate or curious about. We think that developing knowledge and ability helps a child’s sense of identity and belonging. 

Our program is based on the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) principles of ‘Belonging, Being & Becoming’. We want to help them build up their confidence and self-esteem by giving them the opportunity to discover new interests and develop them. 

Here for families

We also believe children thrive when they are in a supporting community, that they feel a part of.  All of our workers are caring and compassionate, and love kids. We think it’s important to know and understand every child, and their families. Our vacation care is diverse, and we are proud of that.
