Partnerships with family
At Sunshine ELC, we will work together with you to offer the best care and education for your child. Parents are the child’s first teacher, and we focus on building strong relationships with families to make sure the child’s needs are met. We also encourage families to participate in our programs, and we strive to achieve a sense of belonging in the child by facilitating a connection with their home.

Child-Centred Programs
Every child have different talents and strengths. Our programs at Sunshine are Child-centred, children learn through play and a variety of stimulating planned activities – all based on their interests. A child’s interest is the foundation of our learning program. We focus on children’s personal development and create personalised plans and goals based on their learning pace. Families will be able to readily view and track their child’s development.

Stimulating Environment
We believe that a safe and welcoming environment is the key to nurturing a child’s development. With the guidance of EYLF and the children’s interests, we carefully plan the rooms and experiences that stimulates a child’s mind. Our educators facilitate children to become confident and involved learners.

Continuous Improvement
Continuous self-reflection and improvement is what drives Sunshine ELC forward. Our strong management team is constantly seeking ways to improve the quality of our education, environment, and educators interactions with kids. We do regular anonymous surveys to find out what families want to see from us and we address all issues raised by all parents. We value transparency and it’s one of the main philosophies of how we operate as a Centre.
