The Right Start for Your Child
Tennyson Pre-School Kindergarten is a safe, nurturing educational environment that gives your child the right start to their educational journey.
We believe children learn best when they are happy! Our program promotes play and wonder while being driven by tailored planning to suit the educational and developmental needs of your child to ensure they receive a high- quality program.
Our mission is to provide a learning experience that fosters your child’s self-esteem and self-worth, as well as developing a strong sense of trust, dignity and respect for others.
Our Philosophy
Safe, Happy, Secure
At Tennyson Pre-School Kindergarten we offer an inclusive environment, which incorporates concern for all aspects of a child’s development; physical, emotional, social, intellectual and moral. We believe in acting as a support and extension to the child’s home life and we strive to provide positive experiences, which help to lay a solid foundation for future life. Each child and family will feel safe, happy and secure in our environment.
We believe a child’s experience of an educational institution should be a happy one. We seek to provide a safe, caring, stimulating environment, which meets developmental needs of each child and lays the groundwork for an easy transition to school life.
We aim to provide experiences, which foster self-esteem and develop a strong sense of trust, dignity and self-respect. We endeavour to help children to realise their potential, regardless of gender.
We recognise parents as the primary carers and educators of their child. Because of this, we aim to work closely with parents and build on the child’s home experiences. We encourage the interest and involvement of parents and strive to make them feel part of their child’s experiences at the centre.
We value the family and recognise that each child comes to us with different experiences and from a variety of cultural backgrounds. Culturally diverse backgrounds are acknowledged and reflected in our programs.
We recognise the significant importance of play in the life of a child and acknowledge play as an essential element in learning and as a means of enhancing children’s natural sense of wonder and fun.
We believe in the need for ongoing education for teachers, in order to provide quality care and education for young children. Experiences, which provide information, knowledge and research for teachers and staff, will be sought out on an on-going basis.
