About Us
The early years are vital to a child’s emotional, cognitive and social development. Research suggests that a quality early childhood education sets a child up for success throughout their school years and even later in life.
At Zahra Early Learning Centre, we support children in developing their character by nurturing the potential residing in each child in a comfortable and safe environment. Each day your child will be discovering new things using their senses, experimenting with toy instruments, exploring textures, and colours.
Everything we plan in our curriculum is play-based interactive learning and is designed to make our rooms, places where children can truly thrive. Your children will find professional multicultural Educators who believe in them, who relate to their diverse cultural backgrounds, who give them the freedom to be themselves, try something new, and make new friends.
We take pride in our ability to provide a loving, supportive environment to our families and their future generations.
0UR Vision
To provide an engaging Learning environment, that instils the love of Allah and His Prophet (S.A.W).
Our Focus is your child’s social, cognitive and physical development and we facilitate these by empowering children to reach their full potential. We provide them with a place, where the children feel Loved, Nurtured & Educated.
The core of every decision we make is to and create a strong sense of belonging in each child’s life.
Our Program
Experiences are develop through the child’s interests, family input, community influences and the curriculum. Educators facilitate the experiences and provide the necessary tools and materials to complete the task. The educator seeks to include a degree of complexity to the experience, to allow for higher order thinking.
Educators document the child’s interests, ideas, wonderings, and conversations and track the learning, which is occurring. They reflect on the learning that has occurred and facilitate new experiences. Educators document knowledge about the child developmental progress and share with families.
OUR Learning Environment
At ZAHRA the learning environment is seen as the third educator. Objects, tools and materials are displayed at the child’s height and categorized for easier selection and aesthetics. The indoors environment allows for independent and autonomous experiences based on interests and strengths.
Art materials are selected to stimulate creativity and provide exposure to various forms of expression. Recycled and natural objects are used as learning tools and mediums to express themselves. Children will spend time outdoors in a natural setting allowing a connection and appreciation of the environment.
Parents Involvement
As each child’s earliest experiences occur in the home, parental interest and involvement in these experiences is significant to the child’s development. We value a co-operative effort by parents and educators to provide continuity of experiences from the home to the Centre.
