All Saints' College Early Childhood Philosophy 

Our vision is for each child to discover the joy of learning and foster the ability to make a positive difference in our world.

Our College Values of Empathy, Respect, Integrity and Courage are the basis of a strong culture of student safety and wellbeing. Our caring, respectful relationships create a strong sense of belonging. We embrace the diversity of our College community and the richness it affords. 

We teach children to think deeply, building their capabilities, skills, and dispositions. With encouragement to wonder and inquire, they become problem solvers who are resilient, thoughtful and creative. Learning using real life problems, they collaborate, communicate, and innovate as environmentally sustainable, empathetic citizens.

Our children learn through nature-related play, inquiry, and directed experiences. We promote our children’s agency, listening and responding to them so they are nurtured, challenged and empowered. Our teaching and learning environments are intentional; thoughtfully and purposefully planned and regularly reflected upon.

We celebrate each child’s success as they become increasingly capable, curious and resilient contributing citizens of our world.
